Re: {Chrysler 300} 1962 Passenger Floor Aluminum Trim - Needed

[William Huff <whuff@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I was at a car show last year, met a man who had a Studebaker Champion, maybe a Starlight, don't remember.  Speaking with him I was surprised to learn that he had made virtually all the stainless trim on the vehicle using a bead roller as the primary tool and hammer and dolly as secondary.  Then sanded and buffed. That trim looked factory, it was smooth and shiny.  He said wasn't that difficult.  Wish I had gotten his contact info.

Made mine from a piece of aluminum bar stock.

Rounded the edges, polished, bent using the originals as a pattern and drilled the holes.

Time consuming , yes but better than corroded junk.

Club member Michael Burke sold them in the past. He may still have a source or supply.

I wonder if these have been repro’d before?  We will need the passenger side too for a G:

Keith,

 I have covered the strips with the stainless-steel duct tape , installing it carefully by hand and massage it and trim it, works well. I might also have more floor trim.

Those pieces are aluminum but they are extrusions which have been polished, brite dipped, and hard anodized. They cannot be polished again unless the anodizing is removed first. Mine are much better than yours appear to be but I would like to improve them so I am trying to locate a company near me in FL. that will do it . No luck so far. Found companies but they haven't returned my calls. 

 

You could do a google search for companies that do Anodizing in your area and p[ost what you find.

Hello 300ers -

 

I set out to complete my final interior restoration task earlier today and discovered that the passenger polished aluminum floor trim is corroded and likely beyond repair.

 

Does anyone happen to have a set in restorable condition for the passenger side (front and rear) of a 1962 300H?

 

Pictures are attached.

 

Thanks!

 

Kurt
