Don't know if any of these hood strips are what you're looking for but you can check them and see: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_odkw=1938+ford+hood&_osacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p2045573.m570.l1313&_nkw=1938+ford+hood+molding&_sacat=0

Banjup: The 37 will not fit. I know of no reproduction suppliers of either the 38 Deluxe hood handle assembly or the stainless hood trim. Us 38 Ford Deluxe owners have to rely on swap meets, Ebay or early Ford suppliers of NOS/used stuff. There simply isn't enough demand to tool up body parts that are unique to 38's. I believe you can source the side panel V8 emblems, and for a while, the grille center moulding was available from Bob Drake for a limited production run. He subsequently modified that tooling to produce a run of the equally obscure 39 Standard grill center. You could place a parts wanted ad in our classified, but you will probably only hear from London-based Nigerians wanting personal information.
