Title: MCI9 rear top belt line trim
Post by: grantgoold on May 21, 2007, 09:43:46 PM
Looking for the trim that covers the rear of the bus and is the continuation of the window bottom trim line.  Anyone got some laying around?

Thanks

Seems like there are several pieces that make up that trim. Radiator grill pieces, radiator door pieces, and on on the blower door.  Is that right?

I might still have have mine laying around. Not sure if it got recycled. I'll look around today.

Craig, that would be awesome. It also looks like I might get to meet Fred Hobe as I am in on business in florida this week and will be driving to Destin on Saturday. Fred has agreed to look around his place as well.

Thanks and I will be watching your posts. It looks like the pieces I am really in need of is the line that runs from the bottom of  the windows around the back of the 9. It could be one piece or several?

Thanks

Grant,
   It will be 3 pieces. 2 short pieces that go on the rear radiator access doors and a longer piece that goes on the blower door. I thought I had some in my shop, but I checked before posting, I must have already given them away. A mind is a terrible thing to lose LOL  Jack

Grant,

I looked around yesterday, and cannot find those pieces. It's possible I gave them to my friend. He took the rest of the side trim, so probably took those pieces, too.

I'll keep looking, though. Maybe I just "put them away".

Thanks for checking. I did have the pleasure of meeting Fred this weekend and spent a few minutes at his shop. Saw several buses and Freds work. If you are looking to raise the roof, undoubtedly no one is more experienced than Fred. He was very kind, even after a full days work.

I have some flat pieces that we are going to send home today. Hope that work. If you happen to find your pieces let me know.

Thanks

Grant
