Well, a year after installing the new rubber seal around the windshield on my '37, the rubber still hasn't "taken a set" as I had hoped it would. This is not the seating tape I am talking about, but the relatively flat seal that runs around the outside of the winshield frame. Does anyone out there have a solution? Once this truck is on the road, it would be really nice to not have water come pouring through from the bottom corners of the windshield. Thanks in advance.

I had a guy come over to seal my windshield for me and all he did was squirt clear silicone under the rubber, all the way around.

Sure did the trick, too!

I bought three different seals for '37 till I got one to fit. Go with steel rubber #60-0481-50. It was a lot softer rubber than the truck suppliers were selling, plus it was designed a little different. It cured mine from leaks! Joe
