the seals are good but i would be surprised if the are around at least half the plates could be salvageable.

ye i know what you mean, i would expect it to be quite difficult to get the seals manufactured but see what his guys say. thats why im trying to come up with as many alternatives as possible, as soon as we pull the windows im committed to doing something so backup plans in abundance.

Dont put the steel plates back in....make ALUM ones & use Alum rivets...if he does make the seals I bet that they dont have the plate area in them for the rivets ....

no we both agreed that the plates are in there for a reason, so would have to be replicated.

I found this thread with some more suggestion..
windows

Customized van or a NAGS part?
If it's customized, have you tried Duncan Systems?

Does anyone have two...
Try L.E.S. auto parts(732)329-6128.Dayton new jersey.
try www.LCMtruck.com.

It looks like Precision makes a 1/4 glass w/strip for the blazer pt # WCRDQ5121. You may need two to do 1 of these 1/4's. Or maybe Precision can make one for you.

Ok I hope you both get your windows sorted.
While searching for other seals for the camper top on my van I found this place, again in the UK, that stocks the right ones. They have a HUGE inventory of different seals.

I just got two complete NOS vent windows (for my 79 G30)from them too which are also hard to find, they seem to have a good stock of NOS parts.
