Ferrari 250 GTE sill trim strip

Post by chris »

As I can not find the original sill trim strips for a 1963 250 GTE as shown inn the attached photo I would need the exact dimensions of it to fabricate one. That would be lenght, Diameter, contour, position of holes, etc. Can anyone help me please with this? Thanks a lot

On my Series I, I still have one original strip attached to the body. I can measure if you would like. The strips are attached by way of a small "T-bolt" through holes in the sill. I think, they may be plated body color, but am not sure.

GTEs have a rounded profile while the 330s have a more squared off profile. These are both usually painted semigloss black.
