    Doe's any body know where in Los Angeles or where I can send my side trim to get polished and straighten? Also would like to know where to purchase the clips, or is there other clips I could use. The side trim is for a 49 ford custom.

    Thanks Miguel

  4. might be a long shot but,
    try www.hilcofasteners.com
    they're in orange county.
    i've found some pretty hard to find stuff there.

    also try owens salvage. they're an alliance vendor and have lots of stuff. they totally decked me out for my 52 coupe.

    as for the clips, you can make them out of sheetmetal and screws, with a drill pliers, and tin snips for next to nothin
