Hey, I am new here guys, so you can pick on me if you want.

I found these three wooden window frames/ molding or garnish and a dash board up in an old attic. I have no clue what they are off of.

Would any of you guys be able to tell me what they came out of?

Two of them have rubber grommets where a door lock would be. And one has a little ash tray or something on it. The dash board measures 51 3/4" long and ~6 3/8" wide.
Anyway,
here is the link of the listing I have on craigslist, hopefully the photos will work: http://westslope.craigslist.org/pts/2181841479.html

I don't know how you guys post photos. What do I do??? Oh no I think I got it now. Never mind.

Hi.
Would that be Paonia Colorado?
May help tracking them down to include non-UK cars?

Looks like a fairly large car and the dashboard looks quite modern. I don't think these are from a British car. Did any 50s/60s American sedans have wood framing around their side windows?

Hi
Photos seperated to make viewing easier hint for future leave use the enter key to drop a line between the end of image [/img]and the start of the next one[img]
If you do it now by editing your fist post it should get rid of that extra wide page

Yeah, they are approximate measurements but here:

The one window with the little ash tray/handle is - 15 3/4" tall x 34 1/4" long
The other two smaller frames are- 15 3/4" tall x 31 1/4" long
The dash is 51 3/4" long x ~6 3/8" wide, and the speedometer/ instrument hole is 12 1/4" x ~4".
Those are rough but, hopefully that will help.

Does any one know how I could get rid of them with out feeling guilty?? Sad

That's easy! You just need to devote all you waking hours to searching books and forums for photos of the interiors of likely cars.....until you find the one.
