Anyone have a source for the aluminum angle used to edge the linoleum covered front floorboards. Restoration supply has some but my wood floorboards are only 0.064 thick and their trim fits 3/4 inch thick boards.

I think you mean the floors are 0.64" thick!
The original edging was simple folded aluminum angle which you can have made by anyone the a brake press. Any sheet metal work shop would have one and could make the angles any size you want for a small cost.
The horizontal leg of the angle is about 1/4" and the vertical leg should be floor thickness plus linoleum thickness less say 1/16".
That's how I made mine.
