    Looking for a east coast or mid atlantic company that produces a quality smooth running board for my 38 Ford. Not interested in paying the shipping charges from the west coast.

    I recovered the orginal boards with repop rubber coverings and do not like how they fit with the rubber covers.

    Any and all advise appreciated.

    Someone must have a suggestion as to where I can purchase quality smooth metal running boards.

    I stripped all the old remaining rubber off mine, then put a layer of fiberglass cloth over the old metal board. A little work but so far it has lasted 30+ years.

    Thanks guys.
    I am going with smooothiefabrication in North Carolina that unkledaddy suggested. Seems like they have been in business for a long time.
    Thanks again.
