Title: weatherstripping for a 1957 skyliner
Post by: mtwilsonboy on 2014-10-04 16:03
I seen some where in a catalog a complete weatherstripping kit for a skyliner. I cant remember where I seen it. I thought maybe some one on this sight could tell me which company sells the complete kit. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,

I'll look again. There was some place I seen that I seen that sold them all as one kit. For the life of me I cant remember where I seen it.

Being a Skyliner, my best guess would be Jerry's classic cars....link is on our list. Open up their PDF catalog.

I just received a complete kit from Jerry's, in fact had them send all rubber needed to do the car. To my amazement about 75% was USA made, kind of nice, but there was still some china crap. These guys restore a lot of RHT's  so they know what it takes.  Take are Alvin

Maybe I should check out Jerry's. How much did you have to pay for the kit?

X2  All the rubber parts are manufactured by Carpenter.
Get their catalog and buy direct.
Goodluck,

Ron.
