Title: Question on Splash Sheild Clip for '68
Post by: cadmanof50s on December 22, 2010, 07:07:55 PM

Looking to source a clip for my '68. The clip is used to hold up an obscure section of fender splash shield on the left side. I found all kinds of splash shield kits ..but nothing for this clip..

You can see the clip on the first picture of this post..

You can also find it in the 68 Assembly manual, UPC 11-13 Sheet B1. The part number is called 3921872 Clip

Thanks for your help.
