1952 Hornet Weather Seals

    As I am going to Eastern Europe and will not return until May 8th and during that time Allen will be putting my car together again...I would appreciate receiving any helpful tips and pictures for installing complete weather seals purchased from K-Gap...In particular, "S" shape door seal, I believe in one of my other '53 Hornets Hudson included a clamp which along with 3M adhesive help keep "S" in place, also around the door jams and wheel well area's...

    K-Gap doesn't have but I am looking for supplier to buy round gasket for floor steering wheel that goes over carpet. Did windshield bezels have rubber gaskets? Anybody have Antenna Rest old or new they want to sell, if old I'll try and make one and if new I'll use; K-Gap supplier no longer is making this item # 274...



    Thanks,



    Ray
