I have two broken clips that were holding the aluminum molding
along the rocker panel on the driver side. They are about the size of a half dollar and made of plastic. Filing station has nothing nor does Impala Bob. Anyone know where they might find these.
This would be a 1965 Impala Convertible

KO , try Restoration Specialties supply: Their online catalog is at: Restoration specialities catalog It is a pretty long (4.70 MB) file and may take a while to load on dial-up. Their phones are 814 467-9842 & 814-467-9282 web site is http://www.restorationspecialties.comsnail mail is: PO Box 328 Windber PA 15968 Good Luck!   :vcca: P.S. KO when you get to the catalog, the Rocker Panel fasteners are starting on page # 127 and the table of contents starts on page #222 Look on page # 130!

Check your local paint supply shop. They have the circular racks full of all types of fasteners and clips. You may find something that will work.

Thanks MrMack, I found the clips for the molding on the rocker panel on page 130, top of the page, in the center, the round ones. I appreciate the help, need a place to stay the next time you are in DFW, I feel obligated to reduce our over night rate by 2%. southtown

Golly, KO, only 2%, well that is a good rate anyway. Just give the guys ar Restoration a call. You don't need to be driving that 65 around with a loose rocker panel!
