Hey all, I am in desperate need of about 10 small clips that attach the two trim pieces at the rear of the car.
These clips are small and are about 3/4" long and 1/2" wide and the part that sticks into the rear fender is about 1/2" tall.
I still have one of them and it is rusty, but I do have one.
Hopefully someone knows the pieces that I'm going out of my mind trying to find!!!
HELP!!!
I will pay whatever you want and shipping etc.
I am finally almost done with this 11 year project! HELP HELP HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!!!
I can text a pic to you if needed, I am not smart enough to post a pic on here.
I am sorry, this is a 1957 Ranchero...
Maybe post the model of the car. There two I can think of the two tone upper trim on a wagon. And maybe the split on a Skyliner. But if you check the general info the is link to google images with the clips and part numbers to most all the different body styles.
Sent you a PM re: pic...
Later...Hugh
Try https://www.restorationspecialties.com. They have every trim clip and small parts for our cars. Their website is a little hard to use though you need to get a catalog.
Wonderful Catalog, I will call them in the morning to discuss the clips I need!
I NEVER KNEW they were out there, I live in a car town and will let everyone know about them!
God Bless you sir, you saved my brain from melting down!!!
Dunno why...but have not received those pics. As of 10:30 p.m. Central time. Monday.
I sent them, believe me. I will try again, but I had a gentleman send a message with a link to a place that has them brand new and they are cheap! I'm calling them today to order them. Thank you for your willingness to help an old guy out!
And speaking of bits and pieces. your town, Lake Havasu, has the best ever source for plumbing fittings and adapters. I was there years ago and was very impressed. Aside from having everything I needed for metric and Ford springlock adapters, they actually made a fitting for me while I waited....15 minutes, lol.! Pure Choice Motorsports
I stumbled upon this place in Pennsylvania and they have SO much stuff that is impossible to find for vintage cars and they had the clips I needed for $1.13 per clip, plus shipping, but they are coming USPS and will not cost much to ship. They are Restoration Specialties & supply Inc. 814-467-9842
They are on the web and have a virtual catalog or you can order a REAL Paper Catalog like when I was a youngster.
They Specialize in the Hard to Find and have been doing this for 50 years, like when I was a youngster...
Look 'em up and see if they might have something you need!
