Has anyone successfully sourced out the window slide channel material for original 4104 windows? I have a window stuck open because the channel liner has failed. If I can't locate this stuff, I will have to replace the entire window. Why does this stuff happen in rainy/cold weather??? |

Jim - Because Murphy is always along for the ride? Anyway, have you called Luke yet? 1-888-262-2434 Another source might be a local glass company? I've often heard amongst those involved in the old car hobby this stuff being called "fuzzies", so maybe Hemmings? But I'd still try Luke first. FWIW & HTH. . .

Yeah, I know that guy Murphy. I think he's an optimist. Haven't called Luke yet. Thanks for the number. I think you're right, Hemmings or similar is probably the next avenue. |

Try here, they make most of the replacement rubber parts for classic car restoration and hot rods. They matched the chanel on my Scenicruiser. http://www.soffseal.com/ Dave PD4501-304 |

Thanks all. I haven't had a chance to dig into it yet as I am travelling (without the bus) but I've got to get it fixed before winter gets here (NC mountains). |
