Hey, Brad

Where did you buy the new rubber from?  I had the same problem with my 
54 ... I think I bought the rubber from LMC Truck, But I'm not 
positive; I need to double check that.

After having so much trouble closing my doors, I took my truck to a guy 
who restores antiques and had him do it.  Mistake #2:  Now I have the 
opposite problem!  I'm getting drafts, wind-noise and my doors are 
rattling.

I'm thinking about ordering new rubber from Chevy Duty (they always 
seem to do things *right*) and doing the whole deal all over ... again.
