1946-1949 47 Convrt Side Body Trim BUTTONs

[59-in-pieces]

Guys,

I don't know when this happened - not as attentive as I used to be - the BUTTONs that cover up the mounting hole screws on the side body trim have been bagged - ripped off - stolen, those rat bastards.

Any body know where I can get replacements.
Unless some fine person has extras that I could buy.

Have fun,
Steve B.

   You're looking for the button snaps on the top /top boot?  They do vary some in size /finish. Try any trim shop that works on boats. Or ebay 'upholstery snap buttons" . You may have to replace them all to get a matched set.

Warren,

Thanks for your suggestions.
Sorry but, I guess I was not clear what I was looking for.

I have attached a couple of pics of the trim pieces with the holes where the BUTTONs go - front and back.

This is where the BUTTONs go that I am looking for.

Have fun,
Steve B.

It's amazing what two pictures can do to understand an issue!

Will rubber filler plugs work until the real thing becomes avaiable? Not correct but will fill the hole.

Tony,

I didn't think of that.
Good idea.

Oh, I can spray them silver - the poor man's chrome, to help hide them in the mean time.

Have fun,

I think someone was reproducing them back a few years ago. I haven't seen an ad for sometime though.    Harry
