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 |

Re: Unusual Chrome Trim
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 . |

Re: Unusual Chrome Trim
I've seen those "Sargeants Strips" on panels and Suburbans, but never seen them on a pickup before. Was the option also available on pickups, or did someone retrofit those?

Re: Unusual Chrome Trim
As far as I know they were only and option on Burbs and panels. Lots of them ended up on lowrider bomba pickups though..
It looks like someone stuck a lot of the trinkets on that truck sometime in it's life.
