Hot Rods Sill Plates to fit a Model "A" Coupe ????

The stock Model "A" Coupe sill plates are small in comparison to the width of the door (26 7/8"). Does anyone make a 26" Sill Plate that is not Billet?

 

Use the ones that are for the Tudor........longer......

Still short by about 3" to 4".

 

I made a set out of polished stainless sheet-there's a guy who sells these-outtakes of prison mirrors-for about $12 each at Carlisle and hershey. Then I used a Ford logo made for Mustang and other late models-got from a 'stang supplier. I'll try to find a photo.

 

Does the sill plate *HAVE* to go A-post to B-post exactly?? So I have a little carpet at the front and back of it......doesn't look bad and I can live with it....

Here are a couple of photos of my sill plates. The polished stainless is maybe 18 gauge? I am not sure-As I mentioned, these are mirror seconds from Carlisle or Herhsey. I am going to need to trim the inner door panels a bit since the metal plus the underlying carpet don't quite allow for easy door closing.

 

If you or a friend has a bead roller, you could make something trick that would fit.
