Two down, two to go…

Finally, I am in possession of two perfect left hand running boards! Four years and three months has been a long time to wait. After so many false promises, it feels good to actually have the final product. I should have the two right hand boards by this weekend.

Here's a picture of the LH boards:

One thing that needs doing is drilling out the rubber from the mounting holes. Not sure how to do that yet without cracking the rubber, so will think on it awhile. Maybe Andy Lee has already done it to his boards? Here's what the end looks like:

When it gets a little warmer I will paint the underside of each board with Bill Hirsch's version of POR-15 to protect them, then install them on both cars. That's not an easy job because the front fenders have to be completely loosened to get the boards in place. But hey, after all the grief I've been through, that ought to be fun.
