111 coupe windshield trim/lock strip needed
« on: December 16, 2012, 13:45:05 »
Hi!
Needed for a 1969 280se coupe   111-024
 During a protracted glass out paint job, the anodized aluminum lockstrip/deco that fits within/around the front windsheild rubber has come up missing. I need another one, complete. I cant remember whether its 2 "L" shaped pieces or 1 "U" shaped piece. Anyone have anything? Keith 520-404-2875  khbrooks22@lycos.com   Thanks!

I believe it would be similar to the 113 system using two pieces. You would have to go back to the 128 coupe/cab before you would find a one piece trim insert.

 I have a number of 111 coupe pieces here. I'll have a look for some insert pieces.
