I'm having a hard time located the seal that goes between the front and rear window. Does anyone have a lead on a good source. I have looked around online but I may have missed something.

Haven't got a clue on where to get that, but here's my official bump. You should create an introduction thread and introduce yourself and your car. Was this cld's car?

First it looks like the window needs adjusted. The weatherstrip is this one, worked on my 65 Polara, just had to trim a teensy bit to accomodate the screws in the trim.

Yes that is the same car, I am very impressed with the way he took care of it.

Thanks for that, the weatherstrip I was looking for kind of looks like a spud wrench without its lower jaw. I could replace it with a straight piece like that pretty easily but I'm more comfortable replacing it with the same type.

Guys, I have, since posting, ordered a huge expensive ($499) weatherstripping kit from Kanter.com just to get this one piece. I also know that I'll be needing those others sooner or later. Maybe I will have something someone else needs.

As far as the window adjustment, it has the same gap all the way down so bringing it in will just make the top or bottom worse. The bodylines of the door and the body dont quite match, but its shut tight. Maybe I could adjust the striker inward? It doesn't look like it has much room to move.
You weren't asking about the vertical weatherstrip visible between the two stainless pieces that seal the drivers side window to drivers side rear window gap?
The pic you put up on the first post shows a gap between the two that appears to my untrained eyeball to be a fair bit wider at the top than it is at the bottom. That, to me, indicates that one of the windows needs to be tilted more, either the front one inward or the rear one outward - again though, I have no auto body nor auto glass degree so maybe I need my eyes examined as well as my head. Or perhaps the front glass is 'catching' on the roof rail seal and not allowing it to come all the way inward - you can try rolling it down a tad and then shutting the door and see if you get a tighter gap from top to bottom.

Thanks! I ordered some from Steele rubber but the part that fits in the channel of the window is much to wide. Their website said it would fit. FYI for anyone else ordering them.

I've read a few of his posts about it. He also provided me with a lot in person. I will let you know about the Kanter Kit but its going to be about another 3 weeks for delivery.
