55/56 used a vinyl-skinned pad and these are available as repro items from at least 2 sources, regularly advertised in The Cormorant Newsletter and elsewhere. A bit less than $200 as I remember. I believe the 51-54 used a plain fiberglass pad, quite a bit thicker but w/o the skin. You can also buy this material easily but I don't believe this style is correct for the V8 era.

EDIT - Oops, I should know by now to check the parts books before trusting my memory. The parts books shows part# 463232 for all 55th series and 5640 and 5660, and 6481472(presumeably the vinyl skinned one) for 5670-5680 and 5688. Not sure of differences but it also shows 442855 for all 26th and 54th series except the 5431 which calls for 438778.
