I don't remember if I got the windlace/door seal from Layson's or RT Specialites. The doors, fenders were all aligned with excellent gaps before I put in the windlace. Now the doors are pinching the windlace along the front edge (hinge side). I don't see how I can move the doors without losing my alingment? Thanks Steve R 7608306-IMG_0215.jpg (83 downloads)

Assuming the rubber seal is the right size, close the doors as much as you can to compress the seal, and it'll flatten out after awhile. My '63 & '64 both were like that for a few days.
