71 Duster 1/4 glass Plastic Under Mldg.

[tufftoy1]

Does anyone know where I can find the plastic channel that lays under the pop out 1/4 glass front mldg.Mine is dry rotted and fell apart and without this the glass will not stay in the mldg.It is plastic with felt on each side and a couple of plastic T rivets hold it in place and the mldg. slides onto it to make it secure.Any suggestions on this would be greatly appreciated.

I know exactly what you're talking about. No one is reproducing these parts (flocked plastic "weatherstrip" or "seal"). They'd be a money maker if they were. I had to locate NOS pieces from two different sources and at outrageous prices. The little t-shaped retainers are what actually hold the glass in the channel.

I got one (and last?) from Deception Pass Motors: http://www.dpmotorparts.com/

And the other from: Collectors Auto Supply: www.collectorsautosupply.com

The part numbers are: 2965638 & 2965639.

I have a few pics here of the window rebuild: http://70duster440.com/misc.html

Good luck!!!!
