Please use "classified" for sale and search of car parts. Otherwise, I've seen them for sale at various early ford parts sites. both original plastic and the aftermarket chrome plated metal. Google for them. This message was edited by Drbrown on 11-1-18 @ 8:29 PM

Is there a reason that you don't want to use a reproduction from Dennis Carpenter. I used them on my '46 and are just like original.

Used ones may be hard to find. These kinds of parts often went into the crusher with the car body. Color matching may be a concern. The plastic used for the original parts will show various degrees of color fading (UV exposure) depending on the environment in which they have been used and stored. UV exposure can make plastic more "brittle". Apparently some have good luck with reproductions. This message was edited by Drbrown on 11-2-18 @ 7:45 PM

Drake used to sell the metal ones unchromed. You then could paint them the proper color and they would not warp from the sun. Once in a while you can find the metal center piece at swap meets.
