Has anyone purchased the window wiskers,channels, and the back tailgate window channel for a wagon? I am trying to semi-restore this old wagon. The door glass is starting to rattle.
Where is a good source to get these?
I am not sure if a four door B-Body would be the same for the doors.

Thanks,

Randy

Randy,
The 66 to 70 B-Body wagon door seals are the same for the various year applications for the four door wagon 66 to 70. There is a difference in the 66 to 67 four door sedans as compared to the wagon back doors. The window felts are different for the wagons as compared to the four door sedan applications as well. The difference is in the rear door felts. So make sure that your vendor of choice is able to offer that as many believe that they are the same. The rear tailgate seals are still under development. The window felt for the rear tailgate is something that we provide, but only make them up on purchase as there is very limited demand for the product. The glass channel run is available as well, but no quarter glass seals are available at this time and I do not know of anyone even working on that project. Check out our website, but it would be best to just contact us directly as there are some peculiarities of these different year models to make sure you get what you are looking for.
Thanks,
Richard

restorationspecialties.com is who I used for my '63 & '64 wagons. Excellent stuff, reasonably priced, and they spec'd the correct run channel felts. They didn't have the upper window channel then (5-6 years ago). They did have the quarter glass seals, and 2 types of lock strips (black or chrome).

One area to check is the bracket on the bottom of the side glass that the window regulator arm rolls in. There should be a soft liner in the groove to the glass, they wear out and glad touches metal and they rattle. Drivers door goes first. You can make your own to fix this rattle spot. Remove the blue rivet to take the bracket off the glass and install a new liner.

The glass channel run for the rear lockstrip for the 66 and 67 hardtops and convertibles is an entirely different profile as compared to the sedans and wagon applications. At the current time, the profile for the 66 and 67 hardtops and convertibles is no longer available as we were able to source this piece from the original OEM vendor and they had no desire to continue the product. For the sedans and wagons, the glass run channel extends down into the door frame for both the front and rear doors. The division bar channel run is a different profile as well so that it fits snugly into the channel. No quarter glass seal for the wagons or sedans. Have to take into consideration that 63 to 65, 66 to 67 and 68 to 70 all have different profiles, attaching points, etc. Most all of the components are available for the different year ranges, just need to be aware of your needs.

Thanks guys for the input. I have not taken the panels off to check anything out yet, but will soon. Will be giving restorationspecialties a call. Hopefully the rear tailgate glass seal will be reproduced soon.
Appreciate all the help.

Randy
