Among the objects of the invention is a finishing strip which can be applied to such show at the outside surfaceany indication of the means by which said strip is. secured in place. i Y
Other objects will readily occur to those skilled in the art upon reference to the following description and accompanying draw-L ing, in which Figure l, isa perspective View of a portion.

Fig. 5 is a similar view of a fourth 'modiiicat-ion, applied'to ametal ruiming board.
Fig. 6 is a similar view of afifth modifica- Vtion applied to a wooden running board.
In the drawing, the body of an automobile is indicated at l0 with a ruiming board at l1 and having fenders 12. yIt is customary in 1 s. y iinishing the `ruiming boards of suoli vehicles to form the board itself, either of wood or sheet inet-al and cover the surface thereof With some suitable material, such as linoleum 9 or rubber fabric. These materials are put kon the boards in any suitable fashion biitprei' crably are cemented in place. `ibriliter the linoleuin or other .material has been properly apf plied, the edge ofthe running board 1s usually covered with a metal strip serving to protect the 'edge of the linoleum and t0 render the edge of the running board more sightly.
VIn the present installation, similar running boards are produced, a wooden board being shown at 15in .Figures 3 and 4- and metal running board being shown at'll in Figures 2 and 5,. Inpreparing therunning'bard for the use of the presentfinishing strip, a
i the finishing strip is applied to the outer edge the letter' F andmay have the upper surface of thev upper flange provided with a suitable finishing surface, as indicated in Figures 2 a'1id`3at`23. The flange 22 is located at a point intermediate the stem ofthe F Vand may be termedthe fastening rib or flange. This strip "their, instead offorming the stem of the F- l is providedk its outerv edge, such" as is indicated at 20 in VFigures 3 .and 4. After thelinoleum 9 or other material' hasl been appliedy to the board,
and nails or screws 2l driven up through the board and through' the fastening flange 22. edges easily and quickly and which Will not The finishing strip, as shown, consists of a metal strip havinga cross section shaped like may beformed in any suitable fashion, but
vis' preferablyfmadef of a suitable` alloy eX- truded from adie of the proper shape. It is also contemplated making the st 1ip of sheet metal folded to provide it with a cross section of the' sainey F shape, and tlii'slatterforin of the device may-be suitably coated and used fas such,"or maybe provided with a thin metal cover piece to improve its appearance. Furshape,- straight, as. indicated in Figures 2 and 18,' it maybe'soinewhat bowed out, as indicatediingliligures 5 at 25.V Y.
' In caseY a lsheet 'metal'r'unning yboard is to beused,the board is provided with a depend- 8? ing flange 30, as shown in Figures 2 and 5 and this flange willjhave a fold 3l, intermediate Vits "width, formed to receive the securing flange22, thusftaking the place of thergroove v20 iii-the Woodenboard. In the case of the's? metal iboard, the fold 3l will haveits 'sides perforated at interv-als, as indicated at 32 and instead of nails 21, the material of 'liange 22'inay be bumped upV into the hole, asiudieatedjat 33,' iii oideitoll secure the strip in 'pla'cei f ,y 1 i i 'Figure 6 shows a section ofalsheet metal finishing strip and in this ligure the board 15 with a groove 20, as in Figures jf3 and 4. i
The 'finishing strip of'Figuife 'isshown as formedfof sheet metal in the manner'aboveindicat'ed with the securing flange 42 formed ofa fold inthe metal of the strip. "This fold-- ed flange .will preferably be perforated, as wo at 43, for thereeeption of nails 2l. In this engaging the vertical edge of the board,
figure, the strip is also shown as being providthe portion of the board engaged by the ined with a cover strip secured over the strip termediate member of the F being the Walls of edges of the body of the strip. i Now having described the invention and the e preferred form of embodiment thereof, it is toV be understood that the said invention is to be limited not to the specific details herein set of the claims Which follow. Y
I claim forth and illustrated, but only by the scope l. In combination, a running board provid-'A Y ed with a U-shaped groove along its laterall edge intermediate top and bottoml thereof and a finishing strip having a iiange,` adapted to enter said groove and be secured therein and lhaving a second iange `extending over the edge of theupper surface of said board.
