Weather Stripping

[Kenyon Wills <imperialist1960@xxxxxxxxx>]

I got mine from Andy Bernbaum too, and was pretty happy with what I received.

 

I ordered front and rear window seals and was most disappointed to find that I had purchased a coiled strip of extruded rubber.  The one that was made especially for the 1960 LeBaron was simply a shorter length than the standard (larger window) model.  This stuff would probably work OK on justabout any car from the era... 

 

I am most uninterested in having a seam in my car's window seal.  I assume that the darned thing will shrink or do something frustrating to ruin my enjoyment of my "finished" car. 

 

The same goes for the trunk and hood items, but the examples provided were passable.

 

I strongly reccommend comparing any newly aquired rubber trim/seal items to the old before the originals are discarded.  Things may be new, and close to correct.  How close each comes to being tolerable to you might be best determined before you commit to installation with the contact cement.

I managed to find all of the weatherstripping for my 62 Southampton from Andy Bernbaum. Right down to the felt lined chrome strips that sandwich the windows at the door seams. He has a lot of parts.

Rick, try Restoration
Specialties & Supply, Inc

They pretty much carry it all, and I'm pretty sure
a lot of these higher priced catalog companies get their stuff from
them.
