Re: [FWDLK] 1958 New Yorker door panels

Dick,

SMS does heat embossing.  If they do not already have the die in
stock for the emblems you need they will make one up.  I'd suspect
they already have it.  Gary Goers can probably supply those silver
Mylar pieces for the door panels assuming they are the same as a
300D.

Subject: 1958 New Yorker door panels


I've asked my upholstery shop to re-do the door panels on my 1958
Chrysler New Yorker Town & Country wagon.

Now, here's the problem: on the front door panels, the lowest
portion is vinyl, with six silver mylar (?) hash marks,
apparently made of some kind of heat-embossed plastic tape (?),
which have a pattern (heat-embossed?) in them.

I'm kinda hoping that 1958 300Ds have the same item, since that
would raise the probability that such a thing is obtainable.

Does anybody know if such a thing is available, or what solution
is commonly used by the multitudes of 1958 New Yorker owners?

The seat covers also have a Chrysler emblem heat-embossed into a
vinyl section of the seat backs. Again, not available from the
two sources mentioned above.
What should we do here?
