FESTER60 Posted April 12, 2016 Report Posted April 12, 2016 O.K. I am to the point that I am ready to install new window sweeps and channels. I saved the old ones to use as patterns. I have come up empty for clips to attach the sweeps. Are there any tips out there for installing these items? How best to attach the new sweeps without new clips? Thanks! Quote

Plymouthy Adams Posted April 12, 2016 Report Posted April 12, 2016 you either adapt and overcome using clip from other model cars of the same era or do like many and glue them on....fitting other make clips is easy... Quote
jcmiller Posted April 13, 2016 Report Posted April 13, 2016 Mine was originally stapled to the garnish. I used stainless wire through the original holes to secure the replacement. I think I found clips for the for the door side. Quote
Andydodge Posted April 13, 2016 Report Posted April 13, 2016 I used ordinary 1/8th pop rivets and put a dab of black paint on to cover the rivet head, worked fine...........andyd 1 Quote
FESTER60 Posted April 19, 2016 Author Report Posted April 19, 2016 Thanks for all replies. I did find the thread on this subject and it was helpful as well. Heading to Spring Jefferson ( Wisconsin) Thursday. There is a guy there that sells all sorts of clips. Maybe he can help me out. Quote
