Thanks fellas! Still waiting for the car to go to the body shop though. Bought a buffing wheel at an estate auction a while back, built a stand for it and started cleaning & polishing the stainless trim & grille. Happy with the results so far     Rear window trim

Most of the trim I removed from my car had the little foam pcs. See photos.
I plan on remaking them when I start reinstalling the trim

I have a 55 320 block that was going to get scrapped, I could pull what you might want off of it & send it your way

Good on you for persisting.
I got so frustrated working around the rear axle & suspension I just finally dropped the whole thing out of the car. Way easier after that.

Looking good!
If those are the blankets from princess auto, be wary. They will burn from hot sparks, grinding sparks should be fine
