Title: Courier side trim?
Post by: gasman826 on 2020-12-17 16:29
I looked up the model number for a Courier.  There is only one model number.  I searched old posts but no answer.  Did Couriers have any side trim.  I've seen several with Del Rio trim but I'm thinking that is owner installed.  I have a Courier in my junk yard and it shows no evidence of ever sporting side trim.  There are two local Couriers for sale.  I've had just about enough cabin fever to make me go shopping.

Yes...they do. From doors back only. You can see where mine was and what it looked like. Every one I have seen had this trim and only this trim.
I would love to come visit if you decide to sell parts...as I need things...probably not free to do that until April or may though.

I have seen that trim set on eBay as a complete set. 
If I come across the listing I post the link.

Isn't that the same as the Custom sedans?

I have owned 2 57 Ford Sedan Delivery's, both had similar side trim to a Ranch Wagon, only on the rear quarter panels.

I have also owned a Canadian built Courier and it had the same factory side trim. It had a different tailgate handle though. no Ford letters and no spread V on the potmetal handle.
It'd be interesting if the straight piece of qtr panel trim is the same on the Custom and the Courier. Obviously the Custom checkmark and the Courier arrowhead are seperate pieces.

I thought the Courier trim is the same as the Ranch Wagon.  I have compared the long, stainless, Custom spears with the Ranch Wagon spears and they are the same.
