Friend of mine is doin a body off restoration on a 1987 4wd short bed chevy... Dude is powder coatin everything... Every panel blasted ect... But to cut to the chase... He wants GM OEM weatherstripping ... No reproduction crap. Where can he get it from? Needs ALL of the stripping. Let me know! Thx

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

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.

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
