Striker plate vs weather stripping

Lucky for me that I live local to MSA. I ate the cost of the JC Whitney seals, but the 2-pc Precision (seal and welting) that I bought I took back to MSA and exchanged it for the 1-pc Precision. This was for the drivers door only. Once I found one that would work - then I bought for the passenger side.

I'm not touching the driver's side until I have to!

I just sold my body by Fisher car - '65 Riv. Definitely a solid car, but that extra 1500 lbs sure made it slow. I could spin the tires half way through 2nd gear and I still wasn't going anywhere. Handled just like a ski boat.

Definitely felt safer around the other land yaughts than I do now.

Thanks for all the help, Z
