Welcome to the forum! The "paint dividers" (folks are usually looking for) are pot metal castings that were used on Customs that received two tone paint. It is a more or less square part that has black lines painted on it. There is a pic in the section your listing is in. FYI, Burton Antique Reproductions makes the gold trim stuff but not the surrounding trim pieces. A bit pricey...

Lynn.......the paint divider he has is for a Ranchero, that goes on the top of the rear fenders.

Check with Desert Valley Auto Parts in Casa Grande, when I was there a few years ago they had a few Rancheros. If you've done a restoration though, you probably won't like what you'll find on a parts car.

Sadly that's so true. Like a lot of car-folk I always get excited when I find some old car that's been sitting in a farm for years, especially when it's complete. You manage to buy it & drag it home only to find that most of the "rare spare parts" are just as bad as the ones you already have! Having said that having a spares car is invaluable for reminding you of where everything goes back together, no matter how many photos & notes you make, you always manage to forget something!!!
