WANTED: Door Sill rubber pads mounting material

[Kodjo]

I have the rubber parts but not the stainless metal parts holding it to the car. Doen anyone has some to spare?

I live in the Netherlands and would like to make my '69 like new again!

 

Thanks!

You might try Myer's Studebaker in Ohio.  Jon & MIke Myer have parted out many Avantis.

I know, but the price and product are completely out of balance for me. I don't necessarily need new ones either; good used ones are nicer.

I used a school bus vinyl center floor runner for mine and it looks original and very good. Available at all the school bus parts distributers in Indiana, Illinois, and Iowa.

I'll bet you can find something in here, if not... call them and they can do magic...

My reading of the original post, is that Kodjo is needing the stainless trim that goes with the rubber sill.

Kodjo, that piece is just a "L" shaped piece of stainless. Easy to make if you have access to a metal brake. 

I happen to have that piece off of my car, so I've measured it and here are the numbers.

42 " long

6 Holes.....My guess is you already know that, as there should be 6 holes in the body

24 Gauge  (.0239 thick)

The long leg is 15mm......The short leg is 6-7mm

Hope this helps

42 inches is 1,07 meters to a European.  (I don't know why Europeans have the period & comma backwards, but that would be a subject for another day.)

I'm sorry, Dwight, but I think your ancestors drank too much on the boat from Europe to the promised land, causing them to forget how to use commas and periods.

Just so you know: Since no one responded, out of desperation I bought a Studebaker Avanti solution. The advantage is that this solution holds the carpet better. I'm happy with it.
