Door window weatherstrip for 86 convertible

withamc · 08-31-2000, 12:04 AM

Ford has discontinued the weatherstrip along the outside of the door on the 86 convertible. My chances of finding anything in decent shape at a junkyard are slim. Does anyone know who makes these now? JC Whitney doesn't seem to have them, and I haven't found them anywhere else. Thanks.

Be patient and try boneyards that are in smaller towns. I was able to get a set from a car that looked to have been garaged most of its life. Check around, these hard to get pieces sometimes take a little time and digging to find. Happy hunting

I suggest you check out Texas Mustang and use the web (and a search engine) to find NOS parts. They are available but you have to search.

Thanks for the tip. I had never heard of NOS before. My search found several sources - I'll have to call.
