Weatherstripping Question
Me again,
I am going to have to replace the door weatherstripping on my 57. Seeing how my car is a driver and never will be judged, I am thinking about using later year C1 weatherstripping. There are 3 versions used from 56-62. Apparently several attempts were made in order to improve the sealing (can you believe it)! They are 56-58, 59-60, and 61-62. Looks like all the stuff is in stock at CC. Just not cheap is all.
Has anyone done this? Are there major differences in the car? I know the front post is different, but I should be able to drill/tap the holes okay. Not sure if the serrations on the 57 post will be a problem.
There are more fasteners holding the strips in place, but again, I should be able to drill holes okay. Is the fiberglass the same?
Just looking for some advice.
As always, I appreciate any help.
