1954 Olds Holiday 98 2dr trim clips needed

Long story, 1st body shop I had car at went bankrupt, and closed after 20years. Nothing in owners name, all in girlfriends. So that was a wash. Got it back stripped down, and some shady primer. Then it sat for maybe 10 years in my garage to save up money to start all over.

Fast forward 20years to now. It's painted, but all the fasteners/clips for the trim are gone.

I've come to learn alot of the '54 stuff is 1yr only. I found 4 NOS rocker panel clips, and 6 side reproduction clips.

I still need all the trunk, and most of side, and bunch of front lower stainless clips.

And in need of trunk latch bracket, complete front Vent windows (I just have the new chromed pieces, but need glass frame, and hardware.

All this is for 98 2dr HT
Thanks,
Doug Blake

Good morning Doug
Is this the trunk latch you need? And then the quarter panel swoop trim, does your car have a trim like this and if so do you want the clips under it too? I'm still hoping you can find new clips, but if not you've got first dibs on the used ones I have. John

Frank,
Thanks for the lead. I did try them.

John,
I "think" the trunk latch is different? Gotta do more searching. I believe the only clips that are the same is just the front end? I'll look at my book tomorrow.

Doug

John,
It actually looks like a few clips & fasteners are the same after all!!
