jp1gt Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 I need some running board trim for my 29 Cad. Can not find any good ones as they are all rusted out. Does anyone have any experience with making a run of aluminum extrusions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Restorer32 Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 We tried that route for a different car and were told the minimum run would need to be 2000 pounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusty_OToole Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 Depends on the trim. A long time ago there was a post on here about making a similar trim for another car. They started with a strip of aluminum or maybe it was angle aluminum, and embossed the pattern on it by knurling it with a cylindrical die.

jp1gt Posted December 1, 2023 Author Share Posted December 1, 2023 L & L Trim does not have them for 29 Cad anymore and will not make any in the future. There will be more 28-29 cads to restore, that is why I am considering having a run made. Can not find a company that makes small runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
