Guess this is the right place to ask. I have a 77 Road Runner and like everyone else I need the door side window sweeps. Any idea who would have a set for sale ? Used would be great as long as they are not cracked and broken. I have a show to go to the first of May and I keep finding things I need to address.

Detroit Muscle Technologies lists them, and it says they're in stock. May want to call before ordrring. it says set of 8 instead of 4, just be sure. Could just be a typo(?) Anyways, $145 is the price shown.

Restoration Specialties used to have them (where got mine in the mid 2000's) but nothing listed now, at least that I could find.

Top Cat brand used to make them. The ones I got were that brand but, it appears they discontinued them. Did some quick searching around and only ones I found were from DMT.

Maybe I am old school or out of touch but when I message a company and leave a voice mail and get no reply of any kind , I get a little let down . Shame business must be so good with DMT that they don't need or want my money. Oh well it is what it is.

I know exactly what you mean. Had the same problem with roofing contrators a few years ago. Called like 5 or 6 different ones about getting my shed dormer roof replaced. Only one called back, and then never showed up to do a quote. No phone call, no email, nothing. Got fed up and gave up. A couple years later I tried again. It never leaked but was only a matter of time. Through the grapevine I heard about one that was really good. Called them and,,,,,,,a human answered the phone! He showed up to do a quote exactly when he said he would. On the scheduled date, a couple months later, to the job, they were there bright and early before I even left for work at 6:30am. Two days later, new sheathing, insulation and metal roof were done, job site was cleaner than when they started, awesome. The way it should be.

Fortunately I have a guy that handles about anything I need.
I pay for his internet service every month for his home and he takes care of what I need with roofing/windows/or siding problems/fixes.
July 4th we settle up any differences and buy fireworks for each other's families...
Sometimes I have a big show,
Sometimes he has a big show.

It is very nice when someone does what they say they will do. Few and far between now days. My sons wife's brother did a nice job for me recently. Cut down 2 trees and did all the cleanup he was supposed to. Came back a few days later and took the stumps out to.
