34 molding fabrication
I have not been able to stumble across a usable rear window molding or a driver's door (deluxe) molding for my 34 3 Window Coupe. To those of you who have fabricated either of these moldings using similar components from a donor 4-door sedan or Tudor, are you able to provide any advice or words of wisdom based on your effort? Thank you.

Re: 34 molding fabrication
Yes, Originals are hard to find nowadays. Steve's restorations in Portland OR, had repos made up for his repro bodies that he manufactured a number of years ago. Maybe he has some left. What I did years ago, in desperation, for 34 3-W door mouldings was to find a set of 34 2-dr deluxe fronts and a set of 34 4-dr sedan front door mouldings. Switched the 4dr mouldings to the opposite side/rear, cut off the back of the 2dr mouldings and trimmed, sectioned and relocated screw holes in the 4 dr pieces and fit/welded together. Luckily I borrowed some originals for patterns and everything turned out nice but a lot of work.
