Pines trim like my avatar car. Fulton Feather hood trim. Rear view mirror clock. Good sides lover stainless. The hand brake extension as Rockfla alluded to is a must for practical use. Can get pic of mine tonight. Running board trim if it doesn’t have it. Radio. Hood bullnose.

On my black 36 Cabriolet I have:

Greyhound hod ornament, Spyder hub caps with beauty rings, Ford oil filter, dual windshield wipers, Original radio that works fine, Signal-Stat directional signals. Clock in glove box door, Wood grain dashboard, Columbia two speed rear end with original controls, Hydraulic brakes using original pedal. Motor is stock with original aluminum heads.

Car looks great in my humble opinion!

Look for a rear view inside mirror with a clock in it. As was mentioned buy the V-8 Club's 35-36 Ford book and you will see the Ford authorized accessories.
