I'm reconditioning the rear window louvers on my '77 and was wondering if anyone knows a good source for replacement weatherstripping for it. I don't expect to find the exact weatherstrip for it but something close I can modify to work. Any suggestions?

Hey everyone!

Which seals should get both adhesive AND sealant (silicone) and which should get adhesive only? From the FSM, the windshield gets both adhesive and sealant (seal to body and glass to seal, respectively) but after that it pretty much says only to use adhesiv…

I need a new Lt front fender for a 77 280 and was wondering if anyone has experience with aftermarket vs OEM fenders ? OEM is about $384.00 with aftermarket being about $200 plus shipping. Is the fit of OEM worth the difference? Pick and pull or parts cars are not options in the Northeast unfortunately. Thanks
