Kosage Chavis Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 No Sir. They are much different. Not sure how much that affects the difference in regards to seals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnD1956 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Please advise which you have, the Special/Century, or the Roadmaster/ Super? And if you buy these, please advise how well they fit. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cords Posted February 1, 2017 Author Share Posted February 1, 2017 I have a special 46R to be exact and while I have a moment, does anyone know of a weather strip for the top bailey channel on the rear window for a 2 door hard top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beemon Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Just be weary of "what you pay for is what you get". Especially on Ebay. I found the parts for a 56 Century (same as Special) on the Metro website. It says it fits all models, but I would be a little weary since the doors are different. It's also double the price, so there may be a cause for concern with the Ebay price (defective unit maybe?)... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
60FlatTop Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Ebay vendor's abuse of the so called Compatibility Charts is a joke. I think is has been the single factor in me not looking at much on Ebay any more, but they will never know. You are looking at a difference between B-body cars and C-body cars. Slide into one of each to compare. It's like "Whoa!", big difference. One memory about Metro, I bought roofrail weather strips from them for my '64 Riviera that were 2" too long between the molded sections. When I called the surly person on the phone told me my car had been in an accident and the roof was shorter on both sides. A more expensive alternative might be considered.
