hi guys, looking for two of the front strips that go all the way up (not the spike looking ones) on the front sides of a quikold standard, they will look like the ones in the pic,

thanks

Either type of those strips are very hard to come by.

Looks like the main door side trim from a Westinghouse WC-78 could be cut to fit.

Those trim strips are about the same width, but you'll have a bugger of a time getting them to fit the curve at the top of the Quikold with having them kink.  the trim off of a Victor cooler could be cut to fit too.

I have no affiliation with  this company,  , save the link when it comes time for counter trim  in the kitchen redo.

Yeah, you can look for original trim, but I think you will have a lot of time on your hands while you do

On the short ones... can you measure tip to tip... the chrome pieces on my Pepsi are about 16.25, if including the curved part..
I think these shorter pieces might be what he needs.. And are they smooth not debossed ribs running down them?
Way to go! happydrinkers

I might sell parts off mine, if the cooler does not sell on ebay.
