Good afternoon,
I have a 36 pickup and I'm looking for a place to get the little button clips that holds the upholstery to the cab framework. I've got a few, but not enough to fasten everything properly.
Thanks
Mark

What interior pieces are you talking about? There are button clips that hold the cowl insulator on, and on early pickups there were button clips that held the door panels on.
Then there are those wonderful twisted tacks that hold the windlacing around the doors.
But I'm not sure what upholstery to the cab framework you are talking about.

Photos have to be a certain size to be posted -- that probably is your problem as to why you can not post a photo.

I assume you are looking for the push pin panel retainers for attaching the cardboard panels to the doors and kick panels to the bottom corners of the cab.
Attached is a picture of what they look like. The are designed to fit through a hole in the panel and pass through a corresponding 1/4" diameter hole in the sheet metal. I looked them up on ThirdGen's web site and here's the link:

There may be other places to get them as well.
