Bravada Rehab

I have a '91 Bravada, hence the name, that I am in the process of restoring. It was my father-in-law's last car, he bought it in 1992 from the Cadillac/Olds dealer where my brother-in-law was a mechanic. When my father-in-law died in 2002, the Bravada went to my sister-in-law who proceeded to run it into the ground. I got from her a year ago after she had allowed to sit, facing downhill, in her driveway to rot for three years. The mechanical restoration is complete, now on to the body. The most pressing need now are the door glass outer seal for both the driver's and passenger door, and the inner door panel weather strip for the driver's door. These parts, I think, should interchangeable with the Blazer or Jimmy of the same vintage, but I can't find them. Any suggestions? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Additional on Bravada

My goal on the Bravada is to restore it to pristine condition like my '93 Cutlass Cruiser wagon and '94 98, both of which are all original with no need for any restoration.

Welcome to the site. I "think" I know what you are looking for, might be wrong though

I looked around the a&m soffseal site. This might be it, but it is listed for an S-10. What da ya think?

http://www.soffseal.com/store/main.a...tail&item=9624

If you can get a pic, that shows the cross section or shape well. I'll give it another shot.

I just checked soffseal. The one shown has already been replaced. What I am looking for and scribed in the '91Bravada service manual as "door glass outer seal" is the strip on the outside along the bottom of the window opening that the windows is against when closed and prevents water, etc., from going into the door. The door inner panel weather strip is its counter-part on the inside.

Gentlemen-


Thanks for the guidance. I knew if I asked on this site, help would be available. The three part numbers listed by cfhcar are exactly the parts I need. I have ordered them and will install upon receipt. I appreciate the direction to the lmctruck website, it appears I will be able to get the two front fenders I need and other related parts. Thanks, again, for your help.
