Was wondering if anyone has any leads or info regarding subject line.  My car is missing the flappers and brackets on both sides. Has anyone had these fabricated or possibly an extra to try and copy/make?  Any info appreciated.  Thank you!

Chevy's of the Forties sells the flippers.  https://www.chevsofthe40s.com/detail/10297/Chevrolet_Window_Flipper_Hinged_Chrome_Channel_Cabriolet.html
They look reasonably correct, but the length may be off.  Not cheap.

Much Thanks to Bob Hoffman as he provided a lot of the parts.  Still need a threaded pin and springs.  I could probably fabricate but maybe someone has some extra pieces willing to part with.  See picture.  Thanks!

The springs are listed at Chevs of the 40's, item number 4112621B, $26 for the pair.  They are left and right.  I have an extra and it appears to be opposite hand to the one you have pictured.  Don't know which is left and right.  I think I had the special screw made.  If interested contact at brad@ipsengarage.com.

Will order the springs and probably make the pin myself if no one has it.  Thanks Brad and Gene!
