Title: External trim clips
Post by: outcruisen on 2010-07-28 07:23
Guys I am trying to buy all the clips I need to hold on my external trims on a 57 Victoria hardtop.. I was dealing with a company called Restoration Specialties who sent me the diagram and a total cost of $200.00 for the set.. I told him to send the invoice, but 4 weeks later still hasnt arrived.. I keep emailing but get no reply what so ever..

I have also tried Carpenters and one of the others whos name fails me, but they dont have them..

Does anyone have any idea where I can get these clips as I am waiting for them now to be able to do the next part of the process..

Cheers

Mark

If you have one or several bodyshops in your town that that have been in business over 30 years they should have and assortment of clips. The 1949/1959 Ford Master Parts Book has a picture if each model and the clips needed to hold the trim on. They might have a catalog from a supplier where you can order the clips.
