Unusual Chrome Trim
 

Hi Guys,

First time on this side of the forum and came across what I believe is a unique 51 Chevy 5 window with chrome trim that i had not seen before and was hoping someone could shed some light on how rare this was.

Thanks

Pretty rare and brings good money depending on condition. Looks like this side is missing one rear peice.

I think Carter started re making it. So value may not be quiet as strong. Neat old truck .

It looks like someone stuck a lot of the trinkets on that truck sometime in it's life.
