I know the supply problems with these parts have been discussed to death, but does anyone know of a source for 69 B-Body front and rear windshield gaskets? My body shop guy said he had a source for them but it turned out he was wrong. Thanks in advance!

I just asked my contact at Metro Molded Products. He said he gets calls every day about these.

"…the company that was making them is temporarily out of business and we probably won’t see any mopar windshields till midsummer, I get calls every day for this"

I know that doesn't help but answers why.

Right. Thanks. I knew there was a problem with the manufacturer. I figured the only hope was to find someone who has the parts laying around and is willing to sell them.

Rear window only requires a glass installation kit available at most any glass or body supply shop so no worries on that.
Front does require the rubber gasket that is very hard to find right now.
Unfortunately I just sold the last one I had here on Moparts earlier this week. I have a call in to a supllier that I got a few from 2 weeks ago and am hoping that they can find me some more in their system in the coming week. If some become available, I will post it here but I wouldn't hold my breath, I need one for a 71 Demon myself and can't find one of those either right now....
