I'm working on a 1948 Chevrolet and trying to change out a lot of worn out/missing rubber seals that were stapled onto pieces of metal (baffles under front fenders, etc) I have the new replacement rubber but what is being done to staple it on? I don't have a stapler strong enough to pierce the metal. Is there a stapler available? Another option?
63-67 corvettes utilize staples to attach rubber flaps to the bottoms of their inner skirts. I purchase stainless steel staples from corvette central--they are inexpensive. they usually insert thru the rubber and utilize the pair of holes/staple with little or no adjustment of the staple configuration. after the rubber with staple insert thru the inner skirt, I bend their ends over with a pair of needle nose pliers. I doubt you'll find a staple machine that will allow the use of the original holes of your chevy truck inner skirts. good luck. mike mccagh
