Default 1955 ford Ranch Wagon Side trim

Does anyone here have pictures of this model that shows chrome side trims on it? I'm trying to see where the trim is on the sides.This car is pretty close to the 56 model so any pics of that would be ok. Ever since I've had this car,there has never been any side trimming on it.I think that if I put that trim on it,it would stand out better.It looks pretty nice now but would like to make it better. A friend of mine said to put some pin stripping on it but I would rather get the chrome trim for it.It looks like it would be a 3 piece trim.One on the fender,one on the door,and the 3rd on the quarter panel but not sure. Thanks for any and all the help with this query.

From a sales brochure I have (I will have to take a picture and upload it), the Ranch Wagon has no side trim, just the script but the Custom Ranch Wagon does indeed have a straight piece of stainless that goes across the entire length of the body from front to rear.

HRR jogged my failing memory. Here are links to a couple more brochures, '55 & '56.
