if you want the front window and or rubber contact THE GLASS HOUSE in San Dimas,Ca
for the rear good luck! what I did was cut a rear lexan window an 1/8 smaller around the parimiter and used the front seal for the back window as well. for all the other suff I have to get out all my business cards and get back to you tomrrow..I bought all new stuff for my 72 luv and everything fits great..the only problem I have is I cant find any one with wing window rubbers either new or good used ones..mabye you can help me in that area..I have an ebay account so if you wanted to work something out for all the weatherstrip stuff thats local to me we can..

You guys...are making me feel old. And I bet I'm not that much older than you. What I mean is weatherstripping has been discussed at least 94 times on this website. Anyway, http://www.restorationspecialties.com has what you want for door weatherstripping. I believe you want their part number 990021 which is sold by the foot. Hey, I bet if you call them they can talk to you about wing window rubber. They may not have it but might tell you how to get it. Front seal from the glass shop like he said, rear seal from a place called Phil's Rotaries in Australia, he's on eBay. It's the correct seal (correct shape) even if it is a bit large and you have to cut a section out of it and re-seam it.

Hey Mods, can we make a document that newbies are required to read before they register? Or at least a test that demonstrates proficiency with the search button?

Seriously though it's all good, I'm just riffin. 8)

I wanted to buy a rear window rubber from him on ebay and he would like avoid telling me exactly how much shipping was..I got a quote from the post office on how much it would be and they said like 280.00! just for shipping! I was shocked..it just sux cause he has like everything.he should post shipping rates on his products

Yeah shipping from Australia might be pricey. But I bet there's some kind of "Ground shipping" option that might take several weeks but is cheap. There's posts on here about Phil's, (search for Phil's Rotaries) his stuff is kind of hit and miss but several got useable rear window rubber, shift boots, and other things.
