Porsche BT5 10/1959 mysterious optional equipment

#1 Post by Helge Tielker »

Hey guys,
the 356 BT5 of a friend has an optional equipment on his COA called: Decorative Mouldings at Door Handle Level ... does anyone here has information on that?
Descriptions, foto's every lead is appreciated .... the first owner was Odiel Cyriel Meeuws (Belgium, left Belgium in 1969 to London) - any leads to him as well?

Helge, that was the standard side trim on Speedsters, Convertible Ds and Roadsters, and optional on other models.
