There are a handful of NOS weatherstrips out there, but they're few and far between. No one repops any of the 4 door or wagon weatherstrips. I recently bought almost every 71-up b-body sedan/wagon weatherstrip I could find to use on my 73 Dodge wagon resto and/or to save as extras. I'm keeping mine, but if I know which ones you need, I might be able to point you in the right direction. Earning every penny of that moderator paycheck. DBAP

I'll look it up when I get home. As far as tailgate stuff, there's not much left. I bought everything I could find. Frank Mitchell has 1 set of outer tailgate seals (l/r) listed on Ebay for $275, and they won't budge on the price. Those have been for sale there for quite a while. I called several vendors to find my stuff, and most of them had nothing, or had 1 piece here or 1 piece there. Arizona Parts has lots of obsolete stuff, though not much left with regard to weatherstrips. Earning every penny of that moderator paycheck. DBAP

It was good stuff, but for the life of me I can't remember the name of the place. Ozhemi may know who it is. Sorry I can't be of any more help, but maybe this will jog someone elses memory.

As for wagon-specific stuff like the tailgate, I don't think much of that is reproduced. Restoration Specialties has 62-65 B wagon quarter glass seals, and they're very nice, but I haven't seen them for the later cars.

Once I have my car at home, I will see the exact condition of the parts on it and can go from there. Mike (not_a_charger), if you have spares, would you be willing to work together on this? Thanks, Mike.

By "door seals," do you mean the rubber weatherstrips that attach to the inside of the door shell and seal the door to the rocker/pillars/quarter? Or do you mean the window surrounds?

Thanks, Mike. Restoration Specialties is 20 mi from me.I gave them my 62 Savoy wagon rear quarter glass gasket as a pattern eleven years ago,three months later they had them finished and gave me a set for the use of mine as a pattern.Call them and ask for Dave JR,you may be surprised.I have furnished them with more than one pattern item for reproduction.They are a manufacturer for a "lot" of their products,not a middleman vendor.

Fits all the doors on my 1978 B. Almost exactly the same shape and structure as OEM, although in my opinion it is a little on the floppy/soft side. But for less than a hundred bucks, and the impossibility of finding sedan and wagon weather strip, I'll take it. The only real problem is you have to punch the clip holes yourself and that's a time consuming job. Money or time, money or time I think they'll send you a foot sample if you want, or even if you have to pay for it you're talking less than 10 bucks Looking for 1975 through 1978 B body 4 door sedan sheet metal or parts cars - monaco, fury, coronet. Please let me know
