Wndshield weatherstrip.

So on this 1928 Sedan I am re-building what do you guys use for a replacement for the weather seal on the windshield? I see it fits into a groove all around the sides and bottom but have not seen any available that matches the original. Does anyone sell something like what was used or is there a workable substitute?

Hi Robin,

Yes, Robin if you type in the search word "wefco" in the block above I have 2 posts, the second post has the contact information and a chunk of their catalogue showing some of their extrusion patterns...We found that the
# 835 (the 3rd from end) is an exact match for at least the '28 and '29 models, the price gets cheaper by the mile... Phil Peters ran across this manufacturer.

Thank you very much Bill for the information. I received the weatherstrip for Wefco today and it is spot on.
Best wishes.
