Repro aluminum door sills (tread plates) for '51-'55 body style Kaisers ??

[nicolosisa]

Are reproduction tread plates available anywhere?  Or good used ones? 
I need the front door plates (left and right) for a 4 door ('54 Manhattan)
I couldn't find this topic addressed elsewhere.

I went through this for Aero sills. Early models were rubber (unavailable) and late models had aluminum (rare). I found a company with all the adjustable equipment to reproduce aluminum sills, and they do beautiful work, but refused to reproduce anything other than Duesenberg & Packard sills.
They were not interested at any number production run.

So, if you find someone not so swamped with orders that they can take in some work, please post it.

Rudy Phillips, a KF club vendor has new sill plates for Kaisers. They're not inexpensive but you likely won't find them anywhere else. He can be reached at rudyskfparts@sbcglobal.net.
