Car Forum / Antique and Collectibles / Studebaker / September 2005Question on body trim parts for T-Cab
Hi everyone, I have a question.... Thought I remembered that '59 Lark body trim parts will interchange with '63 T-Cab... Did I really remember something real? Or, did I just have a hopeful dream? or just imagination??? Or just eat too much pizza??? Anyway, I would like to know if the windshield bright trim and fender belt stainless trim from a 59 lark would work on a T-Cab??? Don't know for sure... but thought someone here might be able to shine the light on my present hopeful dream... Thanks to all, Mike M. 63Champ..........................ZOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Pretty sure it will Mike, especially the trim around the windshield. 165972 right 165973 left dont cross reference to the car part #s (133xxx)but that may have to do with details formed into the trim. As long as you have a matched set , ya should be good to go. > Hi everyone, > I have a question.... [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > Mike M. > 63Champ..........................ZOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OK Great... then I am not loseing it as bad as I think I am sometimes... I am assumeing this means the fender belt trim will work from a 59 lark as well?

Sure will. On my '64 T-Cab I used Lark fender and door trim and even cut a short piece to put behind the door giving me a solid stainless trim line from front to rear of the cab sides. I also used '61 Lark Cruiser front door panels to get plusher panels with pockets. Paul Johnson The answer to your question is yes. 59-60 Lark trim will fit all T-cab pickups 60-64. Using the sedan trim will allow you to run stainless from the front fender to the rear of the door. In order to complete the package around the cab corner (for two toning) you will have to fashion the piece from the rear moulding of a station wagon. You could fashion it from the sedan moulding, but it's real short around the curve. The 63-64 T-Cab had an optional stainless moulding to do just this, but I've never been able to find any of the stuff. Kinda rare. I used the doors off a 59 regal deluxe car that I parted out to add a little more touch to the thing. These have the stainless trim around the upper part of the door (around the vent and door windows). Really sets the thing off. Bo Wow... You guys have been absolutely fantastic!!! I am so very glad to get all the great info on the trim parts for my T-Cab... I will be dressing her up soon and this info will really help! I am beginning to get a vision as to how the truck will dress up really nice.. Thanks to Transtar60... Mark H. and Paul Johnson!! Thanks again to all my Stude Buddies... I'll post some pics when I am finished with all the trim and paint... it will take me a while since I am doing all my own body work... I am also putting together a fun car at this time... a '65 2 dr stude with a Buick High compression 350 in it... it will be fun to drive!
