I am pretty sure I sure them in a Rare Spares catalogue. They are listed in the FE-FC section. I am not sure if they are the same. Maybe Smooth can help with that. Smooth ?????
Kind regards, Steve

Guys,

Been a long time since I did mine on my trailer, that was in early 1999 and before that when I still had the shop open in 1997. With the trailer I remember using clips from a '57 Chevy and a Camaro (these were left overs from a couple of projects that I helped a mate with) I must say though they worked very well and it is highly unlikely that they were much different (if at all) from the Holden variants.

I'm sure everything you need would be able to be had from Rare Spares or any of the Chev parts sellers. I used the one's with the spring tail that you clip onto the stainless strip and slide them along until they meet the drilled hole. I remember there was two different sizes and some other styles needed at the very end of the strips.

Regards, Smooth

You'll be surpirsed what your local AutoBarn store stock. The clips Smooth is describing can be bought in packets from them, they work well too. From memory they have a few sizes.

You can get clips and gear like that from crash repair suppliers too.
