1956 Buick Special 2door HT Restoration

[Allen Dean]

I need a good source for window and door seals. Any recommendations?

I got mine from ORIGINAL PARTS GROUP I wasn't vary happy with the set but it worked ok except for the door seal ends the original ones had steel in them to keep them rigged the new ones don't and tend to role down with the window so I put the steel from the original one in the new ones it was not easy but with some black weather strip adhesive 3M it worked. around the windows the felt wasn't the same size so pay attention to where the critical parts land and line the new one up that way I used rivets worked good but had to grind the back in some places look in restoration talk for a link to a trim dealer PS when you are n there check the widow rollers and glides goo luck git back if u nead to RUDDOG

The OP was looking for a GOOD source. Sounds like you found a so-so source.

I recommend Steele's Rubber Products. Although I have not used anything for a '56 Buick I have done others & the quality was better than OK.
Just MHO.

+1 on Steele Rubber. I used them on most all the rubber for my '56 wagon and had no issues. I think some suppliers resell for them but I had good service directly from them. The printed catalog was a help for me as I needed lots of stuff.

I used steele rubber and no issues. I think Bob´s also uses their products....
