Yeah, good luck, LMC stuff is typically made from the old equiptment that made the original stuf way back when... :dunno:

he could try and give GM a call, you never know... i used to get some stuff for my 1980 (that was only 5 or so years ago...)

I had hell trying to locate GM ones for my Cutlass when I had it painted in 1999. At the time it was only a 13 year old car and every dealer I talked to said GM stopped making the door gaskets. I was able to get the window belt weather stripping though. I ended up buying aftermarket door weatherstripping from Summit racing, made by a company called Soffseal.

That's the only place I can think of. Send MS3DALE a pm, he might be able to help you. :dunno:

I had a piece of weather stripping on the bottom of the door that was slightly tore, and I was going to order from LMC, but I was in auto zone for something else and saw a box of it, and I looked at it, and it matched the factory stuff exactly. Also, they had 2 boxes (whole door), and one was about half the weight of the other, and I opened it, and someone had cut off about 2' or so, so I thought they sold it by the foot, but here someone stole it, and they couldn't sell it, so he just gave me it and sent me on my way:thumbs:
