Side Hood Trim Clips

[luvmyclassics]

On a 1951 5 star cab are there one or two different style hood trim clips that hold the moldings?

I can only find a single style to order but there were two different styles on the back of my trim pieces.

Who knows what someone may have done to attach the moldings over the lifespan of the truck.
If you can get all spring clips and they work, use them.
In the case of some side moldings ( hood, fender, etc. ) a 'T' clip was used at the leading and trailing edge of the molding for added security ( to keep the molding from creeping over time ) in conjunction with spring clips in the center.
