Does anyone know where to get original fitting rubber door seal for the front doors ? Thanks for any help.

These are the same parts on a Caprice. Pretty much everyone sells them. I like Steele Rubber, but there are other vendors. I had a set for my 84, but sold them when I abandoned the project.

 

Got mine from Steele. Last time I looked on the Steele website they don't list them for Custom Cruiser per se, but all of the 77-90 B-body wagons are the same body so the set they list for Caprice Estate Wagon will fit and work fine. They even come with the plastic retainer pegs.

Go to Harbor Freight and get a set of plastic scrapers and to a body supply store and get some 3M adhesive release agent. You'll need those to get the old w/strip and glue out of the window frame weatherstrip channel, and they also help to stuff the rubber back into them. Your call on adhesive for the upper channels, but stick with a good brand like 3M, either black or yellow.

 

thanks Joe for the help. I did see steele and will check with them. thanks again.

thanks rocket. I can handle the re gluing and all. I just removed all the old vinyl wood grain siding by myself. No one here would touch it. Found the chemical and the method to get it off easily. Thanks again. Phil Scott
