I seem to recall a thread on door weather strip, but I can't seem to find it.

I bought new weather stripping when I restored my car close to 10 years ago. I don't remember for sure where I got it, it might have been VP. I have never been happy with it as it doesn't work like the old ones did. It fits and looks the same, but the rubber is stiffer or something and I really have to use a lot of force to close the doors. i am wondering if any one has found a better source.

I too had the same problem on my '62 several years ago.
Last year before doing my '65 I talked to VP about my concerns and they claimed there was not a problem.
However, the ones I got thru Swedish Treasures {sourced I'm sure from VP} worked much better but it was about 6 months before they compressed enough for the doors to close easily

I found the original post it was from Feb of 2007 I had saved on my computer and stumbled over it looking for something else.
