    :tiphat:Hey All,

    I live in a small dessert community north of Los Angeles where I’ve finally got Mama’s Hotrod roadworthy after 11 years hibernation under the car port. Only now the car has become something of a novelty as the SW has been thoroughly supplanted by the SUV. The Phoenician Yellow seems to further punctuate her peculair presence among modern traffic as she move vohluntly amid them.

    I have a small challenge that I need help me with…
    I’ve cleaned & lubed all the mechanicals of the tailgate window lift and am ready to reassemble, except that I need new window channel run rubber inserts for the rear glass to slide up & down within. There are many configurations of channel run available but none of the catalogues show application for 1964 Fairlane Wagons. I’m wondering if there is a universal or alternate part that could be used. Any leads are greatly appreciated!

    Kevin
