jft69z Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 Maybe Legendary. They wanted to sell me some when I had my interior done, but I just sprayed mine to freshen them up. They were crazy money if I recall, which is why I sprayed the originals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brew Posted July 5, 2021 Author Share Posted July 5, 2021 Tried Legendary. No luck😕 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dtret Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 I did the same as Joe. Scuffed and sprayed with interior matching paint. Then I flipped them and put them on opposite panels so the wear pattern was hidden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enough that I looked mine over and said 'no way'. Like Dennis, I flipped them so the wear pattern was down. Did you call them, or just look online at their catalog? (I think my interior may still be the cover car for the M/C catalog) I'll try to dig thru the old invoices and see if there's a part number or reference when I get home later.

jft69z Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 Official name, don't know. Legendary just says to "re-use original trim end caps and mounting brackets". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, we go every year usually. There's 2 actually, the earlier one is the 'Pirate's Festival' or something like that, usually smaller than the main one. The big one gets in the vicinity of 1000 cars or so. Lot of stuff comes from Canada and Rochester NY for that show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially since they start real early, lining up 1000+ cars, etc. Nope, I go, enjoy everyone else's hard work and nice rides & go home.

I'm about 100 feet from Niagara Falls city line. If you stay around an extra day or so, there's a good cruise night on Mondays at the old Wurlitzer factory in N. Tonawanda. Usually gets over 500 cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCfan Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 7 hours ago, Brew said: What would the thing the ESCUTCHEONS slide onto be called? Brew, Not to be nit picky, but those end caps don't actually "slide" on to the mounting brackets. Instead, they are made to "snap" onto the mounting bracket once they are properly positioned. I don't have a photo of the back of an end cap, but the ones on my '70s had a small spring steel catch that clamped onto the outer edges and the inside end of the mounting bracket to keep them from sliding back off the end of the strap/bracket when in use. It sure looks like they should slide onto the side rails of those mounting brackets but they actually have to be positioned over the mounting bracket and snapped into place. I encountered one end cap that would slide a bit on the bracket and discovered that the end of the spring steel clamp and been broken off, likely by trying to slide it into position on the bracket. I found that it was easy to remove them by simply snapping them off the bracket with a flat blade screwdriver (as shown in the attached photo) so replacing them just reverses that process. Good luck. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7tonemonte Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 I never put the straps back on my car when I redid the interior. Kinda like it that way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
