belt line weather strips

Post by hotrodron »

Hey guys, I want to tell you all a lesson I learned the hard way. My 65 needed new belt line weather strips (fuzzies),so I ordered for my app, a 65 = 404 2dr sedan from xxxxxxxx, a well known supply. they arrived so decided to do worst window ( pass, rear ) first. got them in, installed glass ,then realized they were not thick enough. Called xxxxx , they said these were the only listing they had. #@%&#!!!!! . Looked on the net and found out Ford retooled mid 65 and switched to thin weatherstrips. ordered new from Falcon Enterprises and there perfect. Skinnies are approx 9/32 thick....others are 7/16 thick. Funny thing was the strips were manufactured by the same supplier! Hope this saves someone a hassle.........Ron
