    Need ID help on stainless trim, picked these up at swap meet and think they might be ford. Anyone recognize these? Could they be 1949-1951 shoebox?
    long side 60" with 8" center gap, short side 55" , about 18" tall in center,
    beginning to wonder if these are even for a front or back window at all. because of the bottom center gap . They may be pieces for side windows?

    Good luck.
     
  3. That would be nearly impossible.
    If you assembled it the way its mounted on the car it might draw some conclusions.

    Just about EVERY make/manufacturer used a split/2 piece windshield from the mid '30s to the mid '50s...and a large percentage offered stainless trim. I'm afraid it's one of those "Needle in a Haystack" kinda thing.:(

    I hope you got a real bargain as the hopes of finding what that stuff fits is slim to none.

    I’ve got stuff all over I bought and have no clue what it was for.

    The price was right, just a few bucks.

    All that stuff is here and there, heck I use some of it. Lugged some spindles out of a swap meet because the price was right. They have been modified for punches...sigh

    I now only buy something for a good deal if I think I can make something with it.

    I know, no help.
     
  9. That would be a clue....and the screws that hold it on/in.
