wing window gasket

those gaskets are a bitch. drilling out and re-riveting all back together I messed mine up real good. I ended up buying the complete assembled ones for my 74 k5. Dropped right in no issues . 200 bucks apiece tho,ouch.
 
Precision weatherstrip is the go to.
You can send them in and they will do it for you if you want them rebuilt.

They aren't that bad. Take your time, work through the process.
 
LMC has a good video of how to rebuild the whole window\wing assembly. They make it look way easier than it is but if you follow it you can do it. Just more swearing and banged up hands.
 
im tryin to find out where to buy the strio. my father said.. put strip on window... bang it in..
Do I understand that you are referring to the strip of rubber that holds the glass into the frame? I had a glass guy tell me that he just uses the urethane like on windshields.
I have done the installation using the strips, it works to pound them together. It is a little nerve test for sure.

yeah i dont know what urethane to use...

and yeah rubber piece just put on wing and pound it in.. lol

this is why i havent had a wing window since the 90s lol
 
When I did the ones for my '70, it seemed like the stuff was a special thickness, so I don't know where to get it unless some place sells it specifically for the glass.
As far as urethane, if you can find a glass shop that isn't a big chain, maybe they would get it done for you, for a decent price.
I am lucky, I have a guy who is frickin awesome, he even does service calls for barely any extra money.
