A pillar weatherstripping

[JSabah]

The seal on the A pillar where the hinges  is no longer available so following up on an older post (  http://p15-d24.com/topic/50474-finally-done-1951-dodge-d39-business-coupe/page/2/?tab=comments#comment-535913 I thought in clear up how I handled some of the questions posed. 
 

I used the same Garage door seal. I cut it length wise about a 1/4” from the center ridge. Then I glued the factory flat edge to the car (using contact cement) with this bend facing down. Then glued the metal core to that piece and finally glued the other half (with the bent factory edge facing down and slightly over the previous piece. Below are pics of (1) the profile of the rubber as purchased, (2) showing where I cut (the pic with the scissors in hand), and a few others showing the orientation - note the metal core is not shown.
