There is a small passage sitting quietly in Area 11: CARPETS and MATS of the “Early 1928 VEHICLES {Jan-Jun ‘28} section of EARLY 1928 VEHICLES ( A-1 Revised 1997) Supplement to the Model A Ford Judging Standards & Restoration Guidelines tab which reads:

“There was a round rubber gasket with metal trim secured to the floor boards around the gear shift tower. The carpet also had a metal trim piece around the gear shift until Feb-March, 1928.” ... unclear if the dating pertains solely to the carpet ring.

I have never seen one specifically for the boards themselves. Is this perhaps the flat ring some vendors offer (however, never in stock)?

Can someone kindly post a photo (original preferred)?
