does the seal have a staple at the glue joint toward the bottom ??
Cannot say I have ever seen that but maybe Scott Smith can verify. The originals I have do not show any evidence of a staple, though anything could be possible.

It's been a while since I've restored the adapter ring but I somewhat remember some{I did'nt put any back on}staples...Old age and too much info in my head.. ...And yes that door seal does'nt even have the texture the original did...But I used it anyway... ...Another wonderful repop item...Although I did'nt slop the yellow glue all over the parts like the factory did...
Sounds like you need to upgrade your hard drive and maybe RAM? Maybe a couple beers would help with the sloppy workmanship for gluing?

I will post some more underside pictures of an NOS seal installed on an original Shaker ring for reference. There should be more than a 1/4 inch on the underside to glue though, maybe 1/2 to 5/8. For now this is what I have from the topside.

So extending this question to the next step in the process, what is the best way to do the actual glueing? I need to do mine soon and from the test fitting it appears I'll need clamps. Is that correct?
Until total honesty is on the table, we're not even talking about reality...

My original untouched 71 base is glued top and bottom, and at the seam. There is a consistent 3/4", rolled over the bottom edge, seam on the side with tape, just like prior pics.

Thanks that help alot, going to try and tackle that job this week end. Don't know if I will do the tape of not, would have to try and find some that look correct. Guess black Gorilla tape won't cut it
