These are the guys I bought the upper tailgate bits from that I have been playing with - quality seems good and they shipped in decent time.
Boy, that rear door fixed window would be clutch!
Agreed, I've been looking for fixed window rubber for my 74. I bought the Steele Rubber fixed window rubber and will attempt to retrofit. Bought 2 of each size hoping to splice. Not ideal, trying to get creative, didn't try it yet.
I sent them a request. I'm guessing it will be a no but we'll see.
Let me know if I can help.
Thanks Jim. It's all "catch as catch can" at this point but I know there are lots of us that would like rubber parts. In a year or two I will get a bit more serious and hands on.
"NO reveal molding groove."As of right now this is it.

Guessing this means it won't accept the chrome windshield trim?
No it won't but I did ask them what it would take to make one. I've been tinkering with this problem on and off since I bought my pig. @J Mack sent me a shop in Texas that might take the project on but it's difficult for me to deal with a business that's 9 time zones away so I haven't contacted them. Also I'm not desperate yet and won't be for some time so I haven't made it a burning priority.
SO my window rubber is the old school with the chrome and I want to go to the new style. The rubber is probably not in great condition, but maybe I can donate it so a supplier can reverse engineer. I am just worried that I will ruin my windshield and it looks like they are hard to get right now.
If you want, send them to me. (DM). I’m in Texas (half-time, anyway); and have a warehouse and integrated shipping & receiving operation in North Austin
I have samples for the windshield and cargo windows with the groove.
This is 80-series, but here are the prototypes (came back today) for most of the NLA dual filler neck stuff.
I also brought back a tailgate that @PabloCruise had from my last trip to CO, so we can trial-fit handles.
