You'll almost certainly have to get a parts catalog. Then find the PN's, then search that way. Weather stripping is really hard to get for these cars. So, knowing numbers is the best place to start.

You have 2 different places to go. Andy Bernbaum has some stuff that I didn't find at Mopar Mall. Just got my roof rail seal kit in today. Its an exact match to the originals inculding the formed piece that goes above the vent window. The kit also includes the a piller seal. They have the widow divider seal that fits like a glove. I ordered it for a 1964 custom 880 2 door. This kit will fit from a 1961 to 64 wagon since the doors are the exact same. Still working on the tail gate seal will post once I find it. Hope this helps.

What seals are you looking for the tailgate?

I actually got some of the unique rubber pieces I needed for the tailgate window of my 67 B body wagon from Restoration Specialties. Speaking to them on the phone, they were very helpful. I got the rubber for the tailgate window inside the tailgate. the door glass seals that extend around three sides of each of the window openings on the doors, and they sent a sample of the channel seals that will work for the top of the tailgate window opening. I just ordered that last piece yesterday.

This is the channel rubber I just ordered from Restoration Specialties. The sample they sent fits perfectly for the top of the tailgate window opening. But this was for my 67 Belvedere wagon.

I, am replacing the window motor so into the gate. The bottom seal below the scuff plate was from metro rubber, will have to look the # up, was not exact but worked. The runners inside the tailgate I got from Steele rubber it looks like the same is used in the upper track, but mine is still good and have not changed it. The rubber seal on the regulator track was NOS piece I found but Jim 68cuda,s post with the same piece looks like a great replacement. The cat whisker was just a length from Metro also.

Do you have the part # for that seal that fits in the window channel? Thanks

Sorry should have been more specific. The rubber seal that fits in below the tailgate glass and seals the glass to the tailgate when the glass is up.

Don't have the part number for that piece of rubber. I bought that one from them years ago. I had called them and inquired about it. It may have been correct for my specific application, or it may have been for an earlier wagon. Either way, it appears that it'll work for my 67 B body wagon.
One wagon owner told me he made the needed rubber piece by cutting a flat rubber floor runner to size. he attached it to the bottom of the tailgate window glass. then he put the window up, forcing the rubber to curl and seal up against the top of the tailgate. After leaving it like that for a week or two, the rubber stayed in the force shape, and worked just like the factory seal.

Thanks for all your help. I was able to find 99% of the rubber pieces. The rest I will find locally.

Had a local electrical shop rebuild it. The tracks where full of junk and the motor drive gear needed cleaned out and re lubed also.

8-piece roof-rail channel package with molded ends and molded A-pilar seals for 1960-64 Dodge 880, Desoto and Chrysler 2-door hardtops and 1960-61 Dodge Polara 2-door hardtops
This is what I bought from mopar mall. My vent window rubber is still good and have not looked for them yet. You could call them and see what they have.
