Runningboard trim for a 1927

[Old26Buick]

I called Bob's Automobilia today and was told they can't get the runninboard trim for my 27 Buick. Has anyone used another supplier?? I found some at Restoration Supply Company but don't know which one would be correct. thanks for any help.

Old, I just took a look at the Restoration Supply catalog. MOU066 $42.00 is really close to what was on the car. This is aluminum, the original stuff was tin. I have the aluminum on my 23 and it looks great. Just one word of caution, it is un-drilled, so you you have to figure out the spacing and make sure the drill does not drift as you start. I used a punch to make marks to make sure everything lined up. I also put in a campfer (sp) on the top so the oval screw head when down inside the rail. Hope this helps.

Oh, the original had both an inner and outer rail, I just put one on the outside, I think it looks better, but it is incorrect.
