RE: {Chrysler 300} 57 300c windshield rubbers

["Ron Waters" <ronbo97@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Here's the deal: You can't. They are not reproduced. The repro stuff you see from 'major vendors' is junk. It's generic and doesn't work. If yours is in fairly good shape, recondition it. If someone along the way expedited glass removal by cutting the rubber, that was a major mistake. So here's what can be done: For the windshield, understand that it's a W451, which means that any Mopar 2dr hardtop or 4dr hardtop from 1957, except Imperial, also uses the same gasket. Also, 1958 Plymouth hardtops retained the W451 windshield while the other makes went to the later W453. So you have to get one from a parts car. Regarding the rear glass, any senior model 2dr HT that has the large rear window will use the gasket that you need.

 

Are these very desirable candidates for reproduction ? YES !

Hi,
