Where can I get rubber weatherstripping pieces for my wagon?
Much of the weatherstripping on station wagons is the same as the sedan version; however, this is not always true (and tailgate weatherstripping has always been hard to find). Two well-known vendors to try are Steele Rubber Products and Metro, who carry all sorts of rubber and weatherstripping parts. You can also try two places that custom-make weatherstripping. First is Karr Rubber Mfg., which advertises that not only do they manufacture rubber & weatherstripping, but will also custom-make pieces. You can contact them at 310-322-1993 or 800-955-5277, or 133 Lomita St., El Segundo, CA 90245. Second, try Wefco Rubber Manufacturing at 818-886-8872. Your last option would be to try to adapt pieces from another car. Although difficult, this is not impossible. First, try a model from the same manufacturer, then try a different year. Length is not your important consideration; how it mounts is the key. NOTE: If you are looking for the rear door lower weather seal for a 1971-1976 GM “clamshel
