53 Hornet Trim Question

ratlee2

I am in the process of reinstalling the side trim on my 53 Hornet. The ones that run from the rockets to the pork chops and it appears that the 4 door sedan have the same profile on the left and right sides for the rear doors.  Can anyone confirm that trim is not side specific.

Thanks,
Rich

I have a '53 HH sedan as well. I just held a spirit level as a straightedge along the top of my rear passenger door belt line trim. There is a very very slight dip at the rear of the piece. It's subtle but I believe it affects how well the rear fender belt end lines up with this piece. I believe that makes them side specific.

Rich, They are indeed side specific.

Thanks for the feedback guys.  Sorting through a lot of trim, but getting close to piecing the puzzle back together.

Good luck! 

53 has some of the most confusing trim and it’s really annoying, my 53 is missing peices as well . Some of them are really hard to get ahold of as well!

Blake let me know what stainless trim parts you may need.
