I have a 67 I drive. The question is to rebuild the door window rubber with new? Or replace with a kit with no vent window? If I go back org Iam looking for the out side trim to have no crome just rubber. scratch

OG style window trim/rubber on the roll down glass (on my 68) is two seperate pcs. I think they all are. Leave the trim out when installing- check that clips on the rubber scrapers hold snug enough w/o trim there. cheers
Am I remembering this right? Hmmm....

I don't think you can get the outside rubber without chrome... unless you get the black kind like i have in my 98... it's sold as one piece... then again i have never looked for it without.

I have the same issue, and I haven't found the outside scraper without "the rest". But then again, one would have to remove "the rest" to replace it anyway, or am I wrong.

Yes, you have to replace the whole thing... If you want to get rid of the chrome, black may be the only alternative.

I wouldn't go one piece window unless you have AC... I don't know about you, but those vent wings cool me off on those hot summer days!

Call CIP1 and ask if they have any with frame damage, if so, you might be able to get them. The problem that I found is that the new aluminum comes either chromed or with a varnish. This makes them very shiny and unappealing. I lucked out on one for the bus and got NOS but the second one I had to drill put and install on my old frame.

I'm not sure whether 67 is the old style or new, ivassume its the later stuff since the early is just a snap in piece of rubber, but the late model stuff also comes in black, which is not varnished or chromed... its more of a satin finish

Regardless..... I just want to keep as much water from coming in from the rubber scrapers because of it being cracked or missing chunks.
