Repro door sill plates

[Richard Cranium]

Are the repro door sill plates that are made today any better than the ones that were being sold 15 years ago?

On a related subject, these don't look like 68-70 sill plates to me.

I have a set of those laying out back. I better go pick them up and take better care of them.

Duh, I do now! 

But back to the subject at hand, are today's repro sill plates better than those from years ago?

What was the issue with the old ones?

[y3chargerrt]

I remember seeing ones that were too thin and way to polished.

To thin & the 1/8" lip that's supposed to be on the outside edge of the sill isn't there.

Complete with boogers in the mold....

B-Body plates are next to impossible to find NOS. The E-Bodies are way easier to find and Chrysler was still making them up to a while ago.

Anyone pick up some repo plates lately?   Fit nice?  Thick enough?

Mine are kindy sketchy  , but they might be better than the repos. 

Can anyone report in?

I've got repo sill plates and they're definitely heavy enough, no worries. I think they're pretty perfect. (and I'm pretty fussy). I bought them over here though so I can't help you out there.

Nuts, Fred.....I was gonna ask where you got them....

[Fred]

I can try and find out where he gets them from. Will keep you posted.

I'm sure mine have come from Legendary Auto Interiors.  Might be worth looking into.

Probably have to call them. I know they have them cause I just got some from Jamie.
