My original is in pretty good shape - probably better than any used I could find - but I've been holding out to find a NOS if I could, or maybe someone had better info than me on repop.  I even talked to a "hotrod" rubber sealer/gasket supplier at the Daytona Turkey Rod Run (coming up again) to see about maybe taking something common and modifying it to my needs, but it didn't sound promising.  They need a sample/cross section (anyone got a section of a bad one they're willing to cut and send to me?).  The urethane sealer is a good idea and I'll keep that in mind.

No go; been on that site before; I can get everything else, just  not the rear sedan glass rubber...

I will reuse the old if I have to - and it's looking that way - but rubber is generally one of those things you replace if you can when doing a resto/repaint.  I'm doing kind of a "budget" resto - but am trying to do those things I choose "right".  It would be easier to do a hardtop, but I really like the sedan style, and plan to do an understated, dog dish hubcap look to go with the 390/5 speed combo; kinda like a factory drag car if you could have got one from AMC.
