1970s Looking for a source for this clip

[amarzano]

Can anyone help me with a part number or a source for the below clip? They are used to hold the splash guards in my front fender well. I seem to have a few that are coming apart.

Many thanks in advance.

I suggest going to a body shop and see what they use.  I've had trouble finding this type and just spent about an hour looking for the same thing on the internet... clips & fasteners, OPGI, and other sites

NAPA sells plastic clips for that function.....Used them many times.

Ok - let me continue the search and let you guys know if I find the correct part.

In the mean time, if anyone happens to have a few, please let me know.

For anyone else that might need this - I think I found it on the Caddy Daddy sight. Have a few ordered and will let you know once they arrive.

Its basically a metal version of what later became what are often known as the plastic christmas tree clips?   if you were not going for an original look the plastic ones would do the job?

Is the pokey bit still flat metal or is it more of a wire?  Seems like I remember a style where it was wire and the washer part was crimped to the wire part.

  That looks just like what they used on the tri-five chevys for the cowl to hood weather seal.
 Danchuk manufacturing is who has been supplying them to the dealers that handle the tri-fives.
 Apparently they've been reorganized and are going to be back to manufacturing parts, but they had ceased operations in the last 6 months according to what I've seen about them online.
 My dad used to be a distributor for their products 20+ years ago, but after his and my mom's passing I didn't keep up with it.
