    1984 Country Squire moulded rear end weatherstripping where to find, help! (photos)

    been looking online for the rear door moulded weatherstripping that goes on the back opening . the top edge still leaks even after the power window was fixed and is all the way up. where on earth can i find the this moulded part? you can find them all day long for 60's and 70's country squires, but not 80's models. any help on a website a person to contact where i can get this part would be greatly appreciated. photo below is the weatherstrip in question

    Hi my name is Mac, and I have a 1970 Ford LTD Country Squire wagon, I noticed you said " you can find THEM ALL DAY LONG for 60's and 70's country squires ", I was wondering if you could give me the web-site to where I could buy them?, I thank you for your time, Mac from Idaho:162:

    I've yet to have to mess around with a tailgate window (keps fingers crossed), but is there not some adjustment for the wondow, the windows angle...?? I've had the exact problem with door windows over the years and have been able to adjust them that weeee little bit so they fit snug and no more wind wistle and or leaks.


    Way back in the day I had a factory T-Top convertion Plymouth. The T-Tops never leaked but the doors had a slite ratlle over a big bump. When I adjusted the door latch itself I found the power window was to tight going up the last few inches, also, the rear of the door edge was not flush with the rear quarter. I went to a dealership thinking I may needs new seals, although there was no visible damage to mine. I was luckey and had a old timmer come and look at the car. I had the door panels off and he put all back to the way it was. He then went and got some flat foam weather strip, 1/4 inch thick by 1/2 inch wide. He carefully pealed back my door molding and aplyed the strip. Took care of my door rattle and I never had a leak or the sound of wind in the doors.
