Re: [Chrysler300] 300F Body - a couple questions, re trunk lid

[dan300f@xxxxxxx]

Hi all:
 
When I restored my F in 1996, no lip drains, built in late June 1960,  I 
purchased the trunk weatherstripping from Gary Goers.  Upon installing the 
weatherstripping, I could get into the trunk, close the lid and see out through 
between the lid and weatherstripping.  I promptly removed the weatherstripping and 
determined that either the weatherstripping was too thin or the gutter was too 
deep.  This problem was only at the base of the trunk opening.  I filled the 
gutter with Chrysler's black rubber in a tube, placed the weatherstripping on 
the rubber, making sure it was making complete contact, let it set up for 
about 15 minutes, wiped off the excess, and then closed the lid and let it cure 
completely.  I have a good tight seal and no signs of rust.
