Fender to cab + inner fender seals (repro's)
Gauging interest in making and selling the inner fender to cab seals, the T shaped inner fender seal that protects the hood hinge area and the two strips that go along the back of the inner fender.
I needed a set and found a source for the .085" thick fiber reinforced rubber like the OEM's. I made a template out of aluminum to make a pair of the cab seals for myself, took about a half hour to cut them out and punch the holes.
I also made a template for the 'T' shaped seal but haven't cut them out yet. I figure I could include a 2" strip for the back of the inner fenders as well. I haven't found the 1/4" push pins that hold them or the metal staples for the inners.
I figure price for all three pairs at around $25-$30 plus @ $5 to mail them out. I need to see how much they'll weigh and how I can mail them cheapest.
As said, I'm just gauging interest so don't paypal me anything yet. Just reply with your interest and some comments or ideas for making / mailing them out.
Thanks,
Jamie

Re: Fender to cab + inner fender seals (repro's)
Ok, I just salvaged a decent seal for the back of the inner fender. It's a convoluted mess so I'll have to make a template for it as well. It's currently samwiched between some aluminum plates with C-clamps to get it to behave for the template.

Why is it that the trucks are always the best running vehicles in the family?
