    You know that stuff that the windows on the door and q window.

    When I got my 67 2d ht the PO installed what I call Cat whiskers. The CWs that he used are 100% crap. And Just dont look right to me.

    My 67 4D sedan has squeegees. rubber only

    Was there a rubber/felt combo. used back in the day.. I found some stuff like that in the body of a car in the wreaking yard the other day. My old brain cells kind of remembers this was used in the cars I had in the old days.

    Are you talking about 'flocking', the black short fibers that are attached to the rubber on the side facing the glass, that are attached to the door sheet metal, and a similar item attached to the door panel itself to contact the glass?
    https://www.npdlink.com/product/windowfelt-kit-oe-style-8-incl-inner/109026/7414 (Yes, I know it is for a Chevelle. The set for the 72 Chevelle was almost IIDENTICAL except one scre hole in the rear window curve.)
    OR>>> Are you talking about the window channel that goes around the TOP of the door (in a post coupe or sedan with a metal frame around the entire door?
    OR>>> the seal that goes between the front door glass and rear window that is attached to the rear window?

    The best ones I have found and used are from Restoration Specialties, had them make a set for my 66/7 hardtop with wide chrome and the fit was good. If they do not list the one for your car, call them and send them your old set and they will make them.

    Bob, I still don't know which part you are looking for... I posed several questions to TRY to find out. So... Which are you looking for? Inquiring minds want to know.
