Vern: I was gonna use wood too but after researching, seems cars with wood tack strips have rust issues. A local top shop (who even does Saabs) gave me a few pieces of tack strip (same stuff as on the auction site) but it was too narrow and required side-by-side stacking which meant more holes for riveting. After all the time spent looking, etc. the 4' piece of 7/8 x 1/2 for $30 seemed like the best choice. It worked fine albeit with a bit of fiddling and no problem now after 2 years. Good luck whatever you do!
