Hello Gentlemen,
Thank you so much for your responses, very much appreciated. Howard - I couldn't have wished for a more detailed or timely response, fantastic!
Would it be pushing the friendship to ask if you can shed some light on the dimensions of the B pillar trim pieces? They are also completely missing on my car. I thought I'd be able to draw up a template for them without too much trouble, but I'd like to keep as true to the original dimensions as possible.

The sill trim has an outer stainless steel piece that is crimped over a steel liner as shown in Howard's post.
The stainless piece is 44-7/16" long and the horizontal leg of the liner stops 3/4" before the end of the stainless on either end with 9 sheet metal screws holding it to the body sill.
Part numbers from the 1948-54 parts list are 396540 Right and 396541 Left for all 1948-50 two door models.
For some reason, the part numbers for 1941-47 Clipper 2 door models are different but the body shells are pretty much identical.
