Gbody Restoration
Hello,
I'm Doing a frame off restoration on a 79 Gbody.
I finally got it back on the frame. Sent it to the body shop about 3 week's
ago for paint. There is a few pic's in the newbie forum. I blasted the frame
and painted it. Put all new body bushing's in it, new GM Quarter panel,
New floor pan's. Changed front fender's. No interior at all in it. Seat's are redone, but not in the car. No motor or transmission in it. Bare bones when I took it to the paint shop.

Quarter window seals
There was a discussion in the newbie forum about getting quarter window seal's for a 79 Gbody. Nobody reproduces these that I know of.
I contacted Metro Moulding and talked to them about making some of these seal's. I sent them pictures of the seal's. They said if it was a beltline seal they wouldn't consider it. If not then there would have to be a 200 set minimum order, plus all tooling cost. Which could be a whole lot of money. Just wanted to let the member's know that I did contact them and try.
I guess you better have a lot of money if you want a set of these seal's.
Thank's
Bill
