<x-charset iso-8859-1>JoeMcG=> how available are the rubber => components for these cars? => Does anyone manufacture aftermarket => window and door seals? Almost all the rubber seals are available -- sometimes. We have a few guys in the club who reproduce, but their runs are short and infrequent, as you might expect given that there are only a handful of cars being worked at any particular time. When you can get them, many seals are expensive, too, of course. => Will seals from other types of VWs => work? There are a very few that are common to other Typ 3s -- the pan seal, side markers, front-end stuff, engine lid, like that. A few can be made by modifying Typ 1 Ghia seals -- decklids, doors, a couple others. Otherwise everything is unique to the 34s. Some people make do and get along OK with improvised rubber, but it's a kludge.
