Location: Ramona, CA | I'm not sure what the actual name of the part is. The parts book isn't much help. This is from the 1961 book.

Location: Ferndale, WA 98248 | I have a pair of these that will go in my car when I finally do the interior this spring. I can't see a part number on them. They are indeed exactly 3 3/8 inches long. And 1 3/4" across. You can see their contour in the end view photo below. Each bend is about 1/4" from the side. The high bend on the left is 9/16" of the table top, the low bend on the right is 7/16" off the surface.
The shop working on my car is called Heavy Metal Custom Shop, because they can fabricate almost anything from metal. If you'd like, I can take one of my pieces to them and get an estimate on how much it would cost for them to fabricate a pair of these for you. They would also have my front and rear consoles to test fit them to. Getting the inner clips just right will probably be the most difficult (expensive) part of the job.

Location: Ramona, CA | Great pictures, saves me digging up mine. It looks like those tabs were part of a continuous extrusion that they ground off the excess. |
