1966 rambler american

Good to hear from you half way around the world.

About the rear window fitted seal. Here's a little history first. You can get the front windshield fitted seal from a number of companies. But beware, the first one I bought was about 3" to short and the glass guy said he did everything to stretch it. Even put it into an oven to soften it up, but it didn't work. That one had the molding groove in it. But I had to settle for one without the groove just to hurry things up and get it out of the shop.  Now about the rear glass seal. I looked high and low on the internet. Some companies have a seal that is kind of like a rubber rope, it has two ends. Sure, it has the three slots in it for the glass, the body metal and the stainless trim. But the catch is, you have to miter the corners to fit the glass and I have been told that you stand a chance of it leaking someday. Anyway, I bought one of those for about $xx and most glass shops don't want to touch them. If your interested in that, I'll sell it for $xx plus shipping. As for the fitted seal, it has the slot for the stainless trim. The catch is, only one place had two left and I bought them both from Blaser's in Illinois. They are in the mail and should be here by the end of this week. I'll let you know how it turns out. Then you can decide if you want it or not. This Blaser's company had a bunch made up about 10 years ago. I think he had a corner on the market because everyone else said that they don't make them any more. He said he had two left. So I bought them both.

I thought I could make a profit on my second one here in the states. But since your halfway around the world and shipping may be a killer, I'll sell it to you for what I paid, $xxx plus shipping. I know that price is steep, but what is a person going to do, drive around with a leaky back glass. Here in Auburn Washington, (98001 zip) it rains 9 months out of the year. I gave you my zip so you can figure the shipping fee. I got with another company and they wanted around $800 for door window felts and door seals, and mines a 2 door. The door locks and some other items. So I kept looking around and found some cheaper. Keep your receipts and make sure you can return the item if it doesn't fit. I haven't found my receipts yet. All that to say, be careful and do a good search before you buy. I'll let you know how my glass turns out. Take care.

Note: Window seals for Hardtops are different that Sedans. It seems to me that one of these sites also sells brake parts but I really cant remember. Hope this helps.
