[Caveat] Mk.1 Windshield Seals

[thescirocco@juno.com (thescirocco)]

I got an un-solicited email today and I want to give a heads up on these gaskets.

If you get an email pushing Mk.1 rubber, there is a good chance that they are so bad that "that no way would I buy these gaskets".

"we are now makeing front&rear window rubber for this car.they are 'CAL STYLE' w/no groove for the metal strip molding.they are $77.70+shipping +tax.THANK YOU FROM 'VINTAGE RUBBER'"

I asked about dealer pricing, I was referred to someone, and when I contacted them, they quoted me $125 as the dealer price...

I asked what's up, and here is his response:

"the story goes like this;I had a guy inanother city in calif.makeing the gaskets for me and he told me what the finall gaskets would cost me. when tthey were done w/ the fisrts batch, the window rubbers I got from them were SO POOR ,that no way would  I buythese gaskets,meanwhile I expectted to sell them to whoever wanted one at 77.00(or there abouts).I found another Co.,here in Ca.that  I met w/and turned out a fine window gasket,but they were more
expensive do to their prosses.I'm now happy w/the product ,and I've found a company that I have agread to sell them to.Thanks Randy at Vintage rubber"

If you don't want to strain yourself read this version:

The story goes like this; I had a guy in another city in Calif. making the gaskets for me and he told me what the final gaskets would cost me. when they were done w/ the first batch, the window rubbers I got from them were SO POOR ,that no way would I buy these gaskets, meanwhile I expected to sell them to whoever wanted one at 77.00(or there about). I found another Co. ,here in Ca. that  I met w/and turned out a fine window gasket, but they were more expensive due to their process. I'm now happy w/the product ,and I've found a 
company that I have agreed to sell them to. Thanks Randy at Vintage rubber

Here's my response:

Well, thanks for trying to sell me the window seals, that "were 
SO POOR, that no way would I buy these gaskets".


I found another Co.,here

Thanks for the info, and PLEASE don't email me again.
