Weatherstripping

Hi Reid,
Karr Rubber Manufacturing, 800-955-5277, makes a large number of profiles. They are not real cooperative though, want $6 to send a comprehensive catalog of their profiles. 124 pages containing a bewildering number of sizes & shapes.

Had a little better luck at Metro Moulded Parts, on line catalogs:

Good luck,
D
 
Martin MacGreggor; very cooperative chap.

He offers real Healey windlace, not the cheap (aluminum clip) crap that everybody else has been selling.
 
Reid,

McMaster Carr has a pretty good range of weatherstrip profiles. https://www.mcmaster.com/ search under Trim Seals ,Edge Trim, Rubber and Foam.

What about contacting Bill Bolton? I keep hearing his name come up for hardtop supplies.

Could someone please advise me of a good source(s) for various weatherstripping? I need a few different profiles of weatherstripping to complete the restoration of a non-factory hardtop for a BJ8. Thanks.

So many suppliers offered, I love this Forum.
Here's another, Holden Vintage and Classic Ltd I have to admit I just like their catalog. Has just about everything for a Healey.
Good Luck
