Default Re: What is this goop? Restored 1932 Victoria

Originally on those '32 deluxe body types with carpeting rather than rubber mats, there was a taupe-colored heel pad and escutcheons around the foot rest and starter motor switch push rod. I looks like that Victoria once had that pad and those escutcheons, but all that is left is the glue that held them in place on the carpet. Very few sets of those rubber parts were ever reproduced and removing that glue without leaving a trace would be a challenge.

The photo below is of original examples of those rubber items in place.
