My race car - 63 Plymouth Fury , driver door window ( hard top ) the stainless steel trim on the rae edge is coming off . I know there is some sort of seal holding it on to the window but I cannot find a replacement . Looked everywhere at the Mopar swap meet last Saturday , still nothing . We do not have a automotive glass shop in town anymore so I am asking if any one has done this repair . I am trying to load a photo so hang in there . Thanks Gary
