Is there a seal that goes between the running boards and the rocker?

It's been a while, but I believe that the rubber that goes over the metal acts somewhat as a seal. I also recall that you need thick rubber washers between the running board and both fenders to prevent paint chipping on the fenders.

Best,
Thom

Still looking for:
(1) My Dad's 1955 356 (he raced it amateur-class at Riverside and other courses during 1950s),
(2) My parent's black 1955 hardtop bug (CA license plate FWC 201 or FWG 201), and
(3) My parent's agave green 1957 ragtop bug (CA license plate LFK 734).
