Re: 1937 Packard 120 new running board rubber mounting

Why not use a black urethane adhesive? Cleanup the steel running boards - ensuring there is no rust or other issues with the steel. Fill the low spots on the running board with the urethane adhesive floating it off so there is a smooth surface. Let it cure for several days. You can then glue the rubber with either the urethane or contact cement. I would use the urethane.

The urethane is an extremely good adhesive, flexible and should last for a long time. Just take care of the rubber mat as the urethane will be a bear to remove when it is time to replace.
