Just had the cockpit (can you still say that?) trim powder coated to a very
close facsimile of bright dip anodizing.  Installing the trim broght home
the fact this car is a hodge podge of parts from many different cars. The
doors are from another car.  The inner frame superstructure was removed  to
do rust repair to the frame then welded back on.  The frame was put in a
fixture to keep it square and straight, but there was no such fixture to
Weld the inner frame to the "ladder". You can see the result in the
picture.  By the way, the other side (driver's side) lines up fine.
Another benefit from not having the original cockpit trim is some ends are
too long and the holes in the doors and shrouds do not exactly line up with
the holes in the trim.  Notice the angle of the screw head in the door trim.
