My car has a plexiglass rear window and used weatherstripping between the 'glass and body.
I recently found out what brand it was. OK, call me anal, but now that I know, I'd like to do it right.

I need 3/4" wide and 3/8" thick. At least a few rolls of NOS for this period correct restoration project.

The photos below are what the packaging looks like. It has no size on it, so you'd need to measure the width.

Check barns, garage shelves, basements, swap meets, old hardware stores, old auto parts stores, etc.
This stuff is from the 1960's.

PM me here. Thank you.

After that stuff sits around for a few years the sticky side gets all jacked up, I'd get newer stock if possible???

The plastic bag in the photos contained some, and it's in very usable condition. It never saw daylight or excessive heat since about 1970. Maybe that's why it's ok?

I wasn't looking for imported crap.
I have traced the ownership of that division of J-M and have some real NOS US made stuff on the way. :usflag:

Have to maintain the period correct aspect of the restoration.
