Hello fellow enthusiasts:
I am down to some last details on my XK150 Roadster project.
Door weather stripping.

Should be a mundane, easy bit to source but ... I've found easily only the channel strips for the sills.

On my car, the door 'shut panels' have the original holes for the small profile channel of aluminum that rivets onto the door edge. Ive seen lots of pics. The rubber weather stripping is glued into it (im guessing), creating a weather seal against the A pillars when the door is shut.

Cant seem to find those anywhere. nor can I find the rubber for either this channel, or the lower sill channel.

Any ideas? Ive checked most of the usual sources, but I didnt want to bother the forum until I had exhausted my resources! Seems generic enough that with correct measurements, I could have these made somewhere -- but I dont know what those measurements are. thank you for any ideas or leads.

Greg;
I have an extra set for the sills. I fabricated mine for the A posts and can do a set for you. The rubber can be aquired from Bassetts
