47-53 series GMC 250 (1 Ton, 4 speed) Transmission shifter and emergency brake seals that fit below the floor pan and prevents "fumes and heat" dance from entering the cab. See attached pics, thanks. If they don't repop these, what did you do?

Foam slices like butter using an electric knife. If you don't have one, you can usually find them in a thrift store or yard sale for a few dollars.

With everyone help, I found all of this at Jim Carters. Thanks again for the advise and direction! The parking brake designation instead of emergency brake designation made all the difference!

The park brake foam doesn't completely seal on mine so the boot is essential. I'm even considering a fancy leather boot for a better seal. Any heat you can keep out of the cab in summer is money well spent, I think. However in winter the air leaks do augment the heater once things warm up.
