Anyone know of a source for the metal bumper strips used on some of
the vans in the 80's and 90's. It used to be popular but now it's
been replaced by stick on type. I've tried a number of the body shops
in my area and all the suppliers say it's no longer available. I need
a few pieces of the plastic that was inserted in to the track.
Thought someone might know of a source  as it was used a lot in the
80's and 90's on all type of cars and vw or american.

You can see it in this picture below of Miguel Pacheco's AW. It's
running along the seam about 3/4 down the door.
