Seeking OEM convertible boot slide rail

Seeking original equipment top boot slide rail (retainer). This is the part that attaches to top of the rear seat in most '68-'72 convertibles. It is slotted for a "parade" boot.

I'll be at the Nationals in Springfield for those who have one available for sale.

I have an additional one but I believe its actually for a B-body as it seems longer than the one I have in my car. I can measure it for you.

Hey Steven, it should be 33" long and have 6 holes for mounting. Thanks for checking.

My extra one is 42" with 8 holes - must be from a b-body. bet you could cut off the two ends to make it work if you can not find one that is original. I've seen a few convertibles being parted out on this site recently any luck with those?
