Leaf Spring Liners - for a '54

[Tony R.]

Anyone have an opinion as to which leaf spring liners (from which vendor) are the most NCRS correct for an early 54? I am doing an OCD level NCRS restoration.

The ones I removed seemed very much like waxy cardboard. There was no trace of fabric type material at the ends (like some repro kits seem to have). The metal ends were gone, if they were ever there.

Suggestions?

I bought the Corvette Central liners and they look just like those you get from Paragon - with fabric on the ends of the two longer liners and metal ends on all the liners.

As far as I know, none of the suppliers sell band clamps with the Chicago Signode logo. If you're interested and if the band clamps on a '54 have the same log as those on a '62, I had artwork of the logo made and gave the artwork and clamps to a trophy shop. They etched in the logo and it looks just like it had been stamped. I can email it to you if you want.

I will check the band clamps I removed. In the mean-time, if you don't mind, I would love to get that. My email is troetlin2@gmail.com.

Thanks!
