Thats some unusual trim on the brake housings. Anybody recognize it? Could it be period-correct?
I suspect it could be a very rare item now, from back in the day.
My '62 Continental came with the oldest-style hub shiners I've seen, and a German-made rack, which I removed. The hub shiners I consider a proper embellishment tho, and maybe that housing trim can be ID'd as either period or non-period.
