Weatherstripping Advice

jinman · 09-26-2002, 07:35 PM

I noticed there are lots of vendors with repro weatherstripping. Was wondering if anyone had good / bad to say about any of them?

SteelRubber products seem a little pricy
What about Metro "SuperSoft"?

Who's got the best prices / quality?

I too noticed that Steele was spendy. I live a few miles from Metro here in Minnesota, but found they had some items, didn't have others. Steele seems to have everything.

Hands down! Soff Seal's the best according
to most Restorers, have fun.

I haven't purchased it yet, but will probably go with Softseal from A-1 (unless I can get it cheaper somewhere else).

I'm still working out details with my 4speed swap before heading to the body shop. I'll be stripping all rubber & chrome off before I take it there.
