I have a 61 New Yorker 2 door parts car here. I started stripping it and was kinda proud of the side trim on it,,,thought it was an option. Peter (KP/Sweden) informed me that it is not original. I did some internet image searches and can't find anything similar (year/make) with this trim. It sure seemed to fit the car good. I will attach some poor pictures. I have already removed the trim now, so new pictures of the car won't work. Any clues?

I would say that's a '60 Windsor trim perhaps?
There are two kinds of trim on Windsors I seem to recall, a wider trim and the thinner one. I think someone put the thinner trim on this '61.

Would you sell me the right rear wheel lip molding ? (Passenger rear). I'm not sure about the side trim, but if the trim fits the door good you would think it would have to be Mopar trim.

Herman is almost dead on - it's the '60 standard side trim for Saratoga and Windsor that was used for monotone cars. The sporttone trim uses the same wide side trim with a thinner in addition for to create a field for the two tone color (normally same as the roof color) between the two trims.
Fender and door trims is a direct fit for Saratoga (it seems like the fender trim is longer) 2 DHT

The NY'er 'gills/chevrons/what-ever' on the quarter panels are so valuable, it's conceivable that the area around them might
be cut out, so that those ornaments could be carefully removed from the body-steel, off and away from the car.

Highpockets, do you have the rear molding that extended between the taillamp bezels of the car, passing between the trunk lock cylinder and the license plate? Please let me know.
