That looks like a nice car. Maybe you could shape and chrome a piece of brass

How many ya need Gee???? I pulled some off a '57 or '58 several months ago to use as teeth on a scoop I built...didn't work so tossed them in the parts box...have to go round them up but they look like yours...are yours screw on type or a rivet-type fastener? As I said, I don't know if they are '57 or '58...do you know if they are the same? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif Are you after only one spear or the whole piece?
Since they are so rare in Aust...how many AUD are you willing to spend, INCLUDING postage to get them? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

only need just a couple of the chrome spears if possible?
the diecast is kinda pressed on to that small flute panel so when the car was painted i just glued them all back on.
hmmm, not sure if 58s are exactly the same.
...and i should of expected you damn hambers to hold em for ran$om if ya had any http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Since you didn't answer my question about how much it was worth to you, PM me with your checking account number, your savings account number, credit card number(s), Caddy owner's title number, account number on the title of your home, your right-to-work in Aust. number, full name, address, telephone numbers and the name of your first-born...we'll work something out!
Holding Cadillac trim pieces for ransom, indeed!!!!

58 quarter trim is way different.
If 40studedude's parts aren't the right ones shoot me an email. I shaved all that trim off my 57. The parts are probably still around here somewhere. I'll have to wait until my back feels a little better before I can look for them though.
