What year rear window, I have them now.

I am honestly confused about this one. SOR has this listed as available for the modest price of $42. Is there anough of a margin in this stuff to warrant going after production?
 
Mark I saw that shortly after I made my posting here as well. Makes me wonder about the quality of the rubber. I have had after market rubber on other antique vehicles and it does not last as long. The UV gets them in about 3 -5 years.

I will not reveal my source but they have been in business for more than 50 years and are a pretty big OE company. Now they want to get into the restoration business.
 
Dan, Any news on how this is going, Larry

It doesn't look like its going to be a fast process. Most everyone wants the older stuff as I expected but the company that already makes them makes the new and thought they were the same. I am having to collect and send patterns for the older, then I will have to test each piece before we can go into production.
 
along the lines of the dimmer switch boot (which i had no clue existed, so now i need a couple), the boot over the end of the wires at the wiper motors on a dual motor setup. i do have a decent used one if necessary. also, if you need a corrugated top to w/s frame gasket to borrow, i have a nos one.

for pig stuff, pretty sure i have a used cargo glass w/s in acceptable condition if you need it and i probably have a vent window gasket i can salvage without tearing. those would be awesome. i think i have the profile clipping of the two cowl gaskets under the hood. i also have a heater duct boot for a pig, iirc, it's the triangle one.
