Here is some information on the door weather strip. The first picture is the profile of the Steele Packard door weather strip. It's $4.50 per foot. Sorry for the poor picture.
This is a couple of links to the Restoration Specialties weather strip that lists the Packard door seals that Howard mentioned. They are on page 39 of the current catalog.http://stores.restorationspecialties.com/4114c-ws-sold-by-the-foot/http://stores.restorationspecialties.com/4114-ws-sold-by-the-foot/
It looks like the 4114C-WS is the closes to the Steele profile, $2.50 per foot.
Because I'm not doing a full restoration, I used some generic 5/8" wide hollow core from Bob Drake. It was adhesive-backed so it was much easier to install. Cut the ends at a 45 degree angle where the pieces meet. $1.50 per foot (second picture).
