The Stovebolt Site Forums The Parking Lot Panels 'N Burbs Source for rear window rubber/38 panel

Hi guys,

I'm looking for a source for the rubber that surrounds the small rear windows in the back barn doors of a 1938 panel. The windows are roughly rectangular in shape (slight arch on the upper side) and measure approximately 9 x 14 1/4". I've checked Jim Carter and Chevs of the 40s and haven't found anything. I checked Steele Rubber on line; they list a rear window rubber, but don't show a picture or give dimensions, so I'm not sure if it's the right one. A pair is pretty spendy--something like $70! I want to make sure this is correct.

I'm not sure what other years might have the same sized windows--certainly the 1937; but I'm not sure about the 30 or 40. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Jim

might check with your local auto glass shop, should have some rubber by the foot that will work fine

you will have to drill the holes in it for the screws to go through. i found out if you use a paddel bit for wood it works good just go slow and it will drill a round hole in the rubber. where a reg drill bit will not
