Clever1 Posted August 15, 2007 Author Share Posted August 15, 2007 Jim, It would be great to know if your manufacturer finds that someone does make them and they are willing to pass that information along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They say the new Camaros come with their own vin # and can be titled as a 67 or 69 Camaro whichever one you get. And I guess you don't have to reuse the old vin # on those cars. I didn't even know they made the Chevelle bodys yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dans '70 Z20 Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 In case you are still loooking ....Steve Demers from club "NOS Z20" up in NH has a very nice used set on eBay. He is honest and a straight shooter. Description is always accurate. He parts out many Montes Chevelles and knows what a good part is. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayIS...0141247302&rd=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

420ponies Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 KLASSIK1, If they would reproduce these it would be great for monte owners I think. Think of all the ones that are on these montes that are weather cracked and leaking into the trunk and lower body panels.Do you have any outers that are descent shape? If you do, email me I'd be interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KLASSIK1 Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 i think gm added the metal backing for a reason , if they were not metal backed the window would dig into and displace the strip , tear it off the car with repeated window use , i have this problem with the repo glass to glass seals they are way to soft , i am not at all impressed with any of the soft trim i have seen but if it all you can get you have to work with it Leo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevygod Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Probably already been gone over long ago, but has anyone looked to see how a 68-72 Grand Prix is sealed? The back edge looks very vertical, but with the radius at the lower corner it may be sealed the same as a Chevelle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Jim Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Guys, I haven't heard from John excpet to say that it would be too expensive for them to make but have turned mine over to another company to see if they might be able to reproduce. I haven't heard from him about the fender seals yet. I hope the originals make it back to me. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHITE KNIGHT 71 Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 These are the same as the Cutlass Supreme non-fast back. Olds made 2 body styles for Cutlass's. One shape like the Chevelle, the other with a block type look to rear window. The block type, has the same weather strips as our Monte's do. Plus, when I got mine NOS from ebay, (don't ask what I paid), some wrote on the gm package 70-72 Olds Cutlass coupe. Just FYI, Daniel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank23 Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 Quarter rare seal is very important in the car. But if your car is missing both seals on one side, than you have to look at piece of metal where it was attached with inner seal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.E Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 I bought a set from SS396.com but they only have 2 metal snaps not 3 like MC's but the outer they sent is for the vertical between the door glass and 1/4 glass.So if you order the ones from them just order the inner I think they will still work.Same length but not the third clip.I have a set of vertical without the steel in it maybe can make them work on outer.When I get that far I'll see.Really hard to get some parts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
