Here's a pic of the piece of original windlace from my '51. You can see that the bulb is below the bottom of the channel as is the piece that laps over the cab. The bulb is likely where the door was, as it's pretty hardened after being in the weather for 70+ years.
The replacement windlace I got was from Jim Carter back in spring '19. It cost me $40 for the two doors. It's still buried out in my trailer as it's one of the last things I'll need to do.

Maybe I could send a sample to Steele and see if they could modify their mold and produce something that actually touches the door.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.
