Quarter window seal
Has anyone had a problem with replacement seals for my quarter windows on my 1939 4 door deluxe being to big? I bought the seals from Dennis Carpenter

Re: Quarter window seal
Hello
What part number did you order/get from DC? If you are trying to use the 78-7029904 1 piece seals, those are for a coupe, not a fordor. You will need the 10' length of seal and cut to length, or cut down the 1 piece seals. I am assuming the cross section of the rubber channel is OK, Is that correct? |

Re: Quarter window seal
Have you talked to Carpenter about the issue? Those seals should be the same as a '40. Some time back I did a '40 fordor and used the Drake seals. They fit perfect. The Drake part # is 81A-735139/1 and fit the 38-40 tip out style quarter window on a fordor sedan.

I only state this as the possibility surely exists that the 1/4 seals are also too long.

Re: Quarter window seal
I used Drake's seals on the rear quarter windows on my 40 two-many door; it was a wrestle to get them in the frames but in the end they fit well.
