Have been searching but with no luck.

Can someone tell me where to obtain a trunk weather strip for a ' 61 Newport please.

Thanks in advance.

Location: Southern Sweden - Sturkö island		Gary Goers has them, item W10, roundabout $48 plus shipping (from catalog #10)

I have installed this on my '60 and it is absolutely tight - no leaks at all even tough somewhat difficult to close the lid.
Ian has the same one in his Saratoga '60 and he don't have any problems at all.

Location: The Great Northwest		Goers trunk weather strip is in my 61 NYer and works very well. Once it has 'squished down' for a while, it becomes much easier to close the trunk lid but it does require a good slam when it is first installed.

Location: central Illinois		I've bought his weatherstrip but haven't installed it yet. It now comes with a needle and directions on where to pierce it, possibly to ease the slamming of the lid?

Location: Victoria Australia		Bloody hell, read his info and end up confused.

$48 for weather strip.
4% then further along I read 5% extra if paying by PayPal.
$10 for boxing fee.
15% for shipping, (to where I don't know. US/AUS).

I just don't know how much to send him.
