I bought mine from DRAKE about 40 years ago. They fit great back then and still look good today.

I bought mine from Carpenter in 2005 and they fit treat.
Avoid Macs for all rubber at least. I quit using them altogether because of the problems I had with their rubber parts. (weather strip, seals, and gaskets)

I found Carpenter's rear windshield gaskets a bit too long for the coupe. If a coupe is what you are working on, I'd suggest you go with drake for these.

Use the Drake rear seals. Softer rubber and fit better.
