1974 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royal 4-Door Sedan Looking for parts.

I am looking for Belt Line Weather Strip all 4-Doors for a 1974 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royal 4-Door Sedan. I have already tried Steel Rubber, KANTER and most listings on Hemmings. The weather strip has a metal portion and is unique to this model.

Thanks,
Kevin

Sent sample to custom shop.

The seal for those in the future is Steel Beaded with glass safe on one side and rubber on the other. I doubt anyone will be looking for it since a appraiser advised me that I had 1 of only 2 running models in the United States. So, I have sent a sample to http://www.restorationspecialties.com/ they believe they can recreate it and provide enough to complete my restoration.

I commonly see 1974-76 Royale Town and Holiday sedans being used as beaters all over down here. Your appraiser is naive or full of it. What is he basing his data on? Not to bust your chops, but that claim seems ludicrous.

I expect you'll find that part is common to Buick and Pontiac B-body sedans as well, since the door and roof structure is common to them all.
