Guest Gary Hearn Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 How does it attach? Are you sure it is a car or could it be from a boat? The profile seems too high for a car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terry54999 Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 if it is a splash plated alumn. piece, it is the hood spear for a '64 impala Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gary Hearn Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 if it is a splash plated alumn. piece, it is the hood spear for a '64 impalaAt 70" I suspect it is a tad too long for a hood and it certainly is not aerodynamic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
37PackardMan Posted November 26, 2009 Author Share Posted November 26, 2009 It sure looks like stainless to me, but a magnet sticks to it!!!!!!Definitely not splash plated alumn!Still puzzled!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 It has to be either rocker panel trim or quarter panel trim at 70" long. Is it curved or arched in any way or is it dead flat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
37PackardMan Posted November 26, 2009 Author Share Posted November 26, 2009 There is about a 1/16" bow to it..The large end stands about 1.25" high and the small end is .75" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimkf Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 This fits a 1959 Cadillac. I don't know if it's a 2 door or 4 door piece as I don't have a car here to compare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
37PackardMan Posted December 13, 2009 Author Share Posted December 13, 2009 Where would this piece be located?Hood? under the doors?Thanks for the response.Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimkf Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 The trim is attached to the rear quarter panel. Check ebay as there are a couple 59s for sale and the trim is clearly shown in the pix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
