Tailgate glass seal

[ckessel]

My 67 Coronet wagon is needing the seal, which fits into a groove on the glass lift plate plus extends down between the glass and plate, which when raised seals off the gate opening on the outside horizontal edge of the gate. Looking through the parts book for 66 & 67, they list an inner but not outer. Any ideas on where it could be sourced? I did look through some of the Metro rubber universal extrusions and there is one thats close. Need to measure to see if that one may work. I'm going to look back through the oe book and see if its listed in another place.

I believe I got something similar for my 67 from these folks awhile ago: Welcome to Restoration Specialties - A first class restoration depends on quality products

Thank you for that. Sent an email with pics and description.

i think that that w/strip is the same 1 for 63 and up. i also need 1 for my 65. Joe Suchy has/had 1 that he lent to a guy 20 plus years ago and the guy was supposed to repop them. Joe and I are still waiting. guy won't give it back to Joe. I am going to try to use the rubber moulding from the 81-93 dodge trucks that goes in the upper channel and goes down into the door. looks like it might work.

Restoration Specialties has it. Drop them a line. I sent pics to them to verify profile etc. On the to do list when I get some scratch.
TGW001 is their number for the seal.
