I bought a nicely restored ‘53 panel and they are missing. It’s like searching for a Unicorn. Nobody seems to make them and I’m not even sure what they look like. If you find a source please
Let me know too. Thanks!!!

I'm sure that one or more of our fellow Bolters that own an AD Panel would be glad to post some pictures and other identifying info to help in answering your questions.  Welcome to Stovebolt BTW.

Doesn't show any other way to contact, so we may or may not hear back from them??? Appreciate you looking out for a fellow Bolter Marty!
