Another who know's question!

This question came out today at a friends place that also has a 57, and the question is related to my trunk lock questions  How many side trim packages are there on the 57s?

Not sure about Fairlanes.
I think that there are two for the Custom series and two for the 2dr. wagons.
That's my best shot, so someone else has to chime in now.

I would suggest going to 1957ford.com and go to the models tab

Besides Fairlanes, Customs, etc.... Meteors had their own unique trim moldings.

Fairlanes had 2. Fairlane 500 and Fairlane. But also 2dr and 4dr hardtops and sedans. Then there's the Sunliner and Skyliner.

Thanks Sprink88. My question was for the 2 door, so from what I can figure like Jerry said, 3 types were available. We just had a couple of doors with 2 different hole patterns which sparked the question. Thanks HRD

[Jerrys Kars]

Specifically as for the doors, the Fairlane 2dr and 4dr sedan and HT didn't have any trim. 2dr Fairlane 500 Ht and Sunliner would be the same. Not sure about Fairlane 500 4dr sedan and HT. Pretty sure the Skyliner is in a class by itself.

The "fancy" trim on the Fairlane 500 and the Custom 300 fenders and doors were slightly different. At a glance looks the same, but top stainless trim pieces were different. Bob

The gold trim is different on the fenders too.

Pretty sure the Skyliner is in a class by itself.

It is, the "check mark" passes through the lock, the short check mark to top of the quarter fin is wider and completely different and the top door piece is shorter.

There is also the single full length chrome piece but I've only seen that on Ranchero and wagons.

[RICH MUISE]

I may be wrong, but I think that "single full length piece" is just a matter of the builder deleting the top pieces and inserts, and using only the bottom pieces.

They are shown in many of the 57 advertisements for both ranchero and wagons

[RICH MUISE]

I stand corrected...thanks for posting that.

Don't forget the country squire "woody" package. Its probably the most expensive trim package to replace.
