I see people are voting...the question now is " at what price point do these become too expensive"?

Might I suggest checking on Ramcharger Central. You might be able to get a group purchase to make tooling up worthwhile.

my dad talked to the guys at steel rubber about having them reproduced, he has a nos set, but they told him to send them in to them and they would take a look but we are hesitant on doing that and taking the chance of never seeing them again. but they did say they would take a look at them if your looking at talking to someone to have them repopped

on a side note, your poll is great, but there is a lot that comes to play. I would more than likely purchase them if the were reproduced, but not for 500.

I don't know how much demand there really would be for them. Now what there would be a demand for is 87-93 wing window seals.

The auction ended and they sold for $455 + S&H I don't believe this in any way reflects what the average guy would ever pay.My own opinion is the price point is around $250 or so.Above that is a non starter and I don't believe I will ever get it done for that.Just my feeling on the subject...it's unfortunate

I made my own out of some squishy rubber anti-fatigue mat cost less than $20.00. For a part that is invisible when installed it seems silly to spend big bucks on NOS parts. But, I drive my stuff and I understand some folks want perfection.

Your price point should be under $150 - closer to $100
