Waaaay back in my post of this thread, I referred to the Trim Set number as the parent number of the collection of specific trim assemblies for a given vehicle, but after some discussion in Randy Berger's 1956 Caribbean blog regarding dfferent trim set numbers for what appear to be same color combinations, I feel that I need to modify my position on that.

Further review of the information in the front matter of parts book shows some Trim Sets that are actually common to entirely different body styles and models (of saem year), but dimension and patterns clearly vary between them.

So, I would now say that the Trim Set number reperesents only the collection of bulk materials required to build a specific interior trim combination. The Trim Set not a direct link in the production Bill of Materials, but more of an offshoot or cross-reference.
