I find it RIDICULOUS that anyone is criticizing Jim for the POSSIBILITY he might make a profit on these desperately needed trim fasteners!!
Where do people think reproduction parts companies (including Gary Goers) come from!  Its the American way!  One sees a possible market opportunity, does the manufacturing homework of considering the costs, takes the risk of investing some of their hard earned money to get something made, and then if it flies, they deserve a profit.  Are these the same people who complain about big corporations raping the citizens?  I have an option for them: socialism which has NEVER worked anywhere it was tried in the history of the world. 
Take the profit away from repro parts suppliers or the leather suppliers or the mechanical suppliers and you can lock the door on your garage because they will lock the door on theirs.  Now without your hobby car(s), take the profit away from the new car companies and you better GET A HORSE.
Assuming Jim is going to go through the effort and risk to get these parts made, he will be foolish to sell them at cost.  If he does, there will be no incentive to do anything else for these cars.
