jimainnj Posted February 24, 2009 Report Posted February 24, 2009 Has any one replaced the material that goes on the chrome strip that the vent window closes on ? I don't see it in any catalogs. Jim Quote
moparjack44 Posted February 24, 2009 Report Posted February 24, 2009 I used the felt portion of velcro. Clean the surface good. Jack Quote
jimainnj Posted February 24, 2009 Author Report Posted February 24, 2009 Thanks Jack Ever time I do work on the car I find something I didn't see before. Jim Quote
RobertKB Posted February 24, 2009 Report Posted February 24, 2009 I replaced that on my ' 38 Chrysler and bought enough to eventually do my '48. I can't remember where I got it but I will go out to my garage and get back to you. Quote
Bill Ford Posted February 24, 2009 Report Posted February 24, 2009 Steele in Denver, N.C. has this part in rubber Quote
anthonyb Posted February 24, 2009 Report Posted February 24, 2009 I used the 'window fuzzies' strip with the stainless bead. (only beccause I had it around) Just cut off the stainless bead and glued it in place. Quote

That is exactly what I got for my '38 Chrysler and enough for my '48. Back then it was $5.00 per strip. It fits well. Quote
