Title: '57 Side trim questions
Post by: 69supercj on 2010-05-26 07:08
I've got some side trim, the baseline stuff I believe, that came off of a 2dr. wagon. Its the long spear and then the funky looking piece that wraps over the body line and also has a short spear made into it that points forward. It mounts just behind the door below the pillar, sorry but its kinda hard to explain. What body style(s) will this fit? I can include a pic if needed.

welcome to the club 69supercj. This is a great site for all kinds of help, but in your case the first thing I'm going to suggest is hopping over to another site for a minute. If you go to 1957ford.com they have a ton of pics sorted by model designation. Just click on "models" in the left column and it'll bring up a list of all the 57 models offered..just look thru them until you spot the trim you have.   Rich

Sounds to me like you have the basic bottom of the line Custom trim, often refered to as the hockey sticks.

Zap..Hockey sticks are the pieces that go along the rocker panels from rear wheelwell to the front wheelwell, where the go up about a foot or so making them look like a hockey stick.

that's news to me always referred to base trim on Customs as hockey sticks, but I see where that Fairlane rocker trim could also receive that title. :unitedstates:
