hi i have a 1950 chevy and the holes on the top of the dash in line with the def vents is that for molding? i cant find pics on the net with molding installed or in catalogs. any help would be great because i have a lot more questions.Rick
Hi sickies, yes the holes are prob for the trim that runs all the way around the screen. there should be a metal garnish moulding thats in two halves and then one piece that runs straight up the middle. CD do new stainless ones, look under glass on the online store. not sure if they do the middle section as I only had a quick look. ________ VAPORITE SOLO
Reefroster Holes Looks like you might have a problem since you have a chopped top,sickies. As brit 50 says, the inside windshield molding covers these holes and it is in two separate pieces. How good at cutting and welding are you?
Hey Rick, nice truck. How much did you chop off of the truck? You'll have to do some modification to your garnish moulding to accomodate the chopped cab.
Hey Neil, the ss mouldings that CD shows in their catalog are for the outside I believe. The inside moulding is also flared at the bottom where the defrosters are to allow air to hit the windshield.
The holes are for the vents that attach from under the dash with small screws. Since the moulding has a slight bow to it, it allows for the screws to protrude through the dash. Mike
I guess i have confused myself. Not hard to do. The inside garnish moulding just runs along the bottom of the windshield/top of dash, right? It does not go all of the way around the windshield on the inside like it does on the outside, right?
yep, the trim let's call it, is in 2 piece's, driver side and passenger side, there is also a piece that runs down the middle. It runs along the dash just under the windshield, up and around. Mike
moldings thanks for your replys i bought the truck with the chop it looks like about 2 1/2 in my welding skills are allright it did not come with any molding i got the inside and out side steel door molding from ebay and cut welded and smoothed its not perfect but i am happy with them thanks big mike but no the holes are next to them i think ken is right but cant find them or it.i bought the truck just as you see it i have spent a lot of money and time trying to get it inspected/on the road. it has a 1977 350 cid 600 4bbl edelbrock torker manifold with a 350 auto on the floor and a 1979 chevy pick up rear. the stock front end and i have big dreams for it. not much interior but if my wife lets me have more money i can do what i want I HOPE! Rick
Hey Rick, by the way, welcome! We put the "Fun" in dysfunctional! Here's how to handle your wife! Tell her it's her truck! If she's anything like my wife, she'll take an instant liking to it! I keep on telling myself that, but you know, i really think, when it all comes down to it, it makes her happy to know that i'm happy! I'm i sick, or what? I love that girl! (I hope she reads this post)
