There is an alternative for running boards, which is inexpensive and

easy to make. However, it is not original, so you may not want to

consider it. I made the ones for my '29 & pass. sd out out of ( wait

for it!!!), [gasp, choke], marine plywood. This is very strong,

doesn't rot, is the correct thickness, bolts on with carriage bolts and

suitable brackets for bolting to the front and rear fenders, and the

rubber matting glues to it real fine. The trim screws on with raised

head countersunk wood screws. It cannot be noticed unless some

nit-picker lies on the ground and looks under the car. You can

excommunicate me from the group now for heresy if you like.
