Akstraw Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 As I recall, Restoration Specialties in Windber, PA, stocks a wide variety of window channels. You have to know what you are looking for, though. I was also thinking that, if you can’t find the vent gasket you need, perhaps one could be laser cut from some type of sheet material.

trini Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 Give feltpro and/ or Steele Rubber Products. I know Steeles Rubber Products will send you many small pieces sample for free.. You may hit the jackpot. Steele has sticky backed foam seals to fit. Even household and garage door seals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpage Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 I would check out Restoration Specialties too as they have a nice selection of window channel and rubber extrusions to pick from. Rockne is a rarer vehicle and most likely there will be no direct replacement parts listed, even by Steele Rubber. Jeff at RS will send you some free samples of window channel and rubber that you could make a gasket from, or you can look at the website and check their catalog. Unfortunately, it's probably going to be a trial and error thing. Good hunting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trini Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 The rubber seal to fit the channel has a square profile.Such items are common in hardware stores. Give Lowes a visit. You may never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
