1957 convertible top moulding clips

[toplessincan]

These clips fasten the stainless steel moulding at the front of the top (and cover the top fabric), They are 2 inches by 1 inch with the bolt centred in the clip - 8 are needed.
Where can I get them?

Do you see the MLDG in the ILL? Can you give me the PN and I will see if ATTACHING PARTS are cataloged.

51340 is the stainless steel cover that requires the moulding I need (8pc.)

Check with Concours Parts in Nevada. Tbirds use a clip that does the same thing. CASCO lists a kit as # 161 or 161A. They might be the same???

Still working on it. FORD deleted this info from their FINAL ISSUE MPC.

Does your setup consist of three pieces as shown in the ILL above?

Better yet, do you have a photo of one?

OK ... Found the OEM PN anyway ...

The MLDG is B7A 7651384-A and TXT calls for QTY 08 - B7A 7650363-A RETAINERS.

I did not find either PN in a SEARCH. They have to be out there somewhere.
