let me start off with this.this site is waay better then any chevelle site i have come across,why i don't know maybe it's the iq level!anyway i thought i would try this here to see what happens.
is there a weatherstrip manu that can custom make some mouldings??i have a couple bumper seals on my 66 that are totally different to what is sold as "correct".i have both the originals that could be used as demo's.

 

I would contact Steele Rubber Products- steelerubber.com, they can probably help you.

 

Soffseal, Inc. in Harrison, Ohio manufactures automotive weatherstripping.

 

I think your issue will be cost assuming you can find someone to do it at all. Whoever does it will have to make the tooling to produce the weatherstrip, and that won't be cheap. The big places like Soffseal, Metro Molded Parts, Steele, and such will probably not do it. But you can certainly ask. But be holding onto something when they tell you it will be $1000 or $5000 to make the tooling and another $200 or $500 for the product. They will probably also tell you that they'll do it as long as you can find another 100 or 200 or 1000 other people who would also buy it.

I think you will be far better off making something that already exists work. There are LOTS of existing weatherstrip shapes and sizes out there because there are so many makes and models of cars out there. I would certainly exhaust all of this before looking for custom-made.

 

I looked at the Steele website just now and did a search on their site for "custom-made weatherstripping." It turned up nothing.

But one of their menu items along the top is "Universal Parts." You might look at what they have there, and perhaps do something similar at other rubber sites.

 

I would suggest Steele Rubber Products. Great products and they provide rubber products for many venues. Their products are spot on. Very large manufacturer with wide capabilities.
What is so different about these bumper seals and what Oldsmobile models are they for?

they are not olds.they are for my chevelle,but i forgot my password and have tried 6 times to reset it on chevelle.com but there you have to have a password with upper case and lower case letters,numbers and symbols like quotation marks etc pain in the a$$.i talked to steele and am going to send them pics of the seal to see if they might have something similar.got ahold of a real nice lady that knew what i was talking about so we will see what happens.thatnk for the replies.

 

Great, glad it is moving forward.

 

yeah she did mention if they didn't currently make it it could cost upward of 10k to do it.thats why i sent some pics and she was gonna see if they make something similar.do cutlass's use a seal between the rear of body under trunk and the bumper?i don't remember my moms 66 gto having one.
