Allen,
According to the factory parts list the later scuttle seals with teir
accompanying mounting brackets were fitted comencing with car #229180, Body
11143 in November '55. See picture with Florida Green car. Prior to that the
seal here was a simple rubber strip captured in the U channel as per the
Carmine Red car.
