Finally, the banner arrived. But, I'm disappointed. The hem stitching is too obvious - and, they did not account for the dimensions, before they hemmed. They subtracted the hem from the dimensions I had supplied. I will get this addressed, before I recommend anyone buy banners. But, so close! The n...
Well, I don't know if my pieces can be saved, John - but the company claims they are going to refund my money! We'll see. Meanwhile, I'll check out these other companies and try again. At this point, I have nothing to lose.
I received this note from the company: Years ago we use to do some auto trim parts, but that changed in 2013 when we were bought out. You will need to get these parts stripped, then buffed to help bring some of the luster back, and then brite dip clear anodized. You might try the following companies...
A fun video snippet from a DVD I recently bought... Yeah, it's a '53 Suburban, but the '54 is virtually unchanged except for the badging (Cambridge and Cranbrook Savoy Suburban for '53, vs. Belvedere and Plaza Suburban for '54). Martha is a Plaza Suburban:

Along with the previous eBay content, because I throw nothing away! The history of these cars must be respected. Hey, we...
Seriously, Ed, if you upload them here, I will reduce their size and replace them in the post. Then you can download them for posting on ForwardLook.net.
Wow, Dick. Greenie's gone - but, your gentleman is quite the entrepreneur, as I read about him (I won't reveal his name without his permission). But you've told him about the site, perhaps he will turn up here - and we will continue to see and hear about Greenie.
Off to the auction today... (*sniff*). Shamelessly ripped off of Facebook. Kinda a sad day, I'm taking one of my cars to the Dave Rupp Auction in Ft. Lauderdale to see if l can find a buyer.
