1948 Packard 22nd Series Six Touring Sedan Fur flexi covered water stops fitted to outside of - - -

Hi everyone

Been away a while - but my restoration of my 1948 22nd Series Touring Sedan is well under way towards completion (now in year three of the work) and hoping to have it completed by April of 2012.

Small snag however as now we have the door interior working parts out of storage we have found that the fur flexi covered water stops which fit into the outside door panels to stop the ingress of rain into the door are truly ROTTEN.

Speaking using the front drivers door as an example - these are the ones that go from the quarter vent uprights to the curve up the rear of the main side front window glass.

In my case the fur flexi bit is vertually non-existent and the metal bit completly rotten.

Anyone know if these are available from any of the Packard Specialists please ?

Best regards Michael
