Looking for the following for 1950 DeSoto Custom 4-door sedan:

Willing to pay fair price - plus shipping.

Hi Irv-on the vent window rubber--- if yours is a 4 door my Steele Rubber catalog lists a vent window rubber set new.

Marty -

Thanks for your reply and the information. However, the problem is: I purchased a set from Steele Rubber and they are really a VERY POOR fit. They do not seal to the outside of the door (about 1/4" gap all around) - and there is about a 3/4" gap on the inside, where the tight curve is on rubber. I am still "haggling" with them on this. I guess I should have specified that I am looking for a NOS rubber (preferably a pair L & R) - or ones that are used, but in really good condition.

Thanks again.........Irv
