What are these called? Available?

Below find two pictures of interior metal work on either side of the cab on the floor. What are they called where can I get them. They are in a model TT

These are close, but appear to be missing the tabs for holding the footwell trim panels. Did TTs even have footwell trim panels?

You have a excellent example. Making a fix for the rusted side should only be 1-2 hours work would be a good learning experience. Properly done the repairs would be invisible

I believe those are the floorboard risers for a '24-'25 Coupe or Tudor. Part No.s 17354X and 17355X. There are many around among closed car restorers. Some even have the vehicle identification number stamped into them.

1925 open cars have those tabs too. They don't usually need bending.

Bob,
Are those floorboard risers on a TT Enclosed Cab ? I looked into my TT C Cab and the floorboard risers were different than your pics. I have a pair hanging in the barn but I’m afraid they’re for an open T. But I do believe the previous advice is correct. It should be a fun few hours with a minimum of metal working tools to repair these examples.
I don’t know why I turned out this way. My parents were decent people.

-Bob-
From memory on our TT, those look just like the 'toe-riser' panels where the sections of floorboards fit in. Our floorboards are also complete originals. I've not needed to replace, so don't know if there is a vendor who has them. If you need pictures, I can go to the shop tomorrow and send pics to you.

For those not convinced or that haven't seen one, this is a '24-'25 Coupe or Tudor. Part No 17355X as mentioned earlier. That is exactly what that cowl is and not a TT cowl. A cut-off Coupe or Sedan.

I agree, It's not a TT cowl because they don't have wood trim around the inside of the door opening. It's all steel.
