Can anyone with a 1950 parts book look up the part number for the rear fender stainless/welting ?
I need one and I found a '50 being parted out, but I need to know if it is the same. The 1949 number is 1296-006 and 1296-005.
Thanks, James
The 1950 parts book only lists the metal bead welting for the Chrysler models. All the others get the black plastic.
The part number listed for the C48 and C49 is 1243 368 right and 1243 369 left.
They may be interchangable, but the book does not say so.

I have the same and I will add the metal bead was for the Plymouth models too.
The part for the Desoto is 1302-359 and is just black plastic. sold by the foot back in the day.
Also, the part numbers you have listed 1296-005 and 006 are not in my '50 parts list book.
