[Paul Martin <paul_martin78ca@xxxxxxxx>]

My 300F with a Build date of Feb 3 1960 is equipped as follows that shows the varience of parts used.
 
Steel cowl panel painted body color.
Ball and stud type carburator rods,as opposed to sliding adjustment.
Black Kick panels,most I have seen are tan.
It also has The trim package with the door guards and a small stone guard on the leading edge of the rear wheel opening.

Randy and All:
It is apparently true that there were some 300Fs made with a non-painted 
aluminum cowl top grille. Don't ask me why!! This is confirmed by the 
presence of two distinguishing part numbers in the parts book. The painted 
variety are by far the most common. They seem to be rather randomly 
distributed, VIN wise.
The door edge protectors (narrow chrome moldings) were available as part 
of an accessory group, Accessory Package "A", code 363. That package also 
included a license plate frame and an inside vanity mirror that clipped to 
the sun visor.
300ly, Gil C.

First off, Thank you all for your warm reception & welcome a week ago or 
so on my previous post about antennas, and my self-introduction! I got lots 
of response'es to my question of antenna location on a 300F convertible.
Now, I have 2 more questions. 
I have noticed after looking at several (maybe 6) 300F cars that the cowl 
vent is sometimes aluminum and natural in color, and sometimes steel and 
painted body color. Can anyone explain?
Next, my car (a 300F convertible) has stainless door edge guards on it. 
They look very much factory, but my car is the only one I've seen with them. 
They wrap around the rear edge of the door about 1/4" to prevent the edge 
from getting chipped if the door bumps something when opening. Are they 
factory or after market items?
Thanks, Randy
