Center seal unless the corner seals are molded onto it.

Ok if you got a spare set ill send them to the place thats making them.
 If not ill send mine in spring.

 Sent you a pm email me back when you get a chance.

So i got word today so far is looking like February for some of the rubber, April latest for everything...

  I will keeep yas posted on any new info as i get it....

Sorry nothing on price, i dont think its going to be to bad tho, ( had stuff made there before the workmanship was great and the price was good) you can buy it as a complete kit or pieces. Kit will cost a little less then buying every piece by its self.

ok

I am in for the kit also.

There behind but still shoting for the end of this month on the rubber.
   I was hopeing sooner.
       Cant wait to get my 74 done.

Nothing yet, Sorry. I wont know untill there made.
 I have no controll over price and how soon they will be made,

Sorry again, Paul

i will want in for a kit as well .... send me a e-mail when these are available please tm_collins85@yahoo.com

I`ll be calling tomorrow to see whats up...
  I`m waiting for clips for the trim from them.
     I`ll let you all know how much longer it will be.

Paul,

Greatly appreciate you even going through this trouble of looking into the kit, but if this is what it's like trying to get at the very least a quote, I can't even imagine what it would be like if we needed to order through him or something went wrong with the shipment.

Thanks for the info. I'll be at Carlisle so I can get them there if he has a price.

 

He should at least have a ball park price. When I was looking into remaking truck bed sides the stamping company in Akron ohio. Told me a quote 80K for the die and a 100 units at a cost of 300 per panel. The more that was made the less expensive it was. most places do a minimum order. This shooting in the dark thing is wild. No matter how good the part is if its to expensive then most people who need it cant buy it. Then they will think your full of shit for the way you were promoting all of our requests. And thanks for being the go to guy on this. You doing best top re-man's next Hint Hint. lol

 

I`ll call monday again to see if he has a idea....

 I dont think these are going to be stampings so no expensive die needed.

And i did say (((( intrested )))) i didnt say the people will buy them no matter what or what the cost.


He all ready started to make them before i even started this post on here!!!!!!
 
 Thanks Paul

How much are people willing to put down? That is an equally important question. I'm sure everybody would jump if they only cost $50....how high would you jump if they were $150? $250? $400?

Yes thats where im at. If I were to guess I would say 300.00 for the set. We should start a raffle for one. ya games, What would you guys guess.

I've seen NOS sets on eBay sell for $400-750. In fact, I bid on a set up to $400 last year and was outbid. And those are 30 + year old kits.

I'm in for a set if they are close to the factory extrusions. I don't care if they are $400 if they include center roof to windshield, corner blocks, door pieces, bed side gaskets and liftgate gaskets. For $325 I might get two sets to have a spare.

Thanks for the legwork, and keep us posted!

Got to call him back tomorrow, sorry for the delay, i worked to late and cant call him while im at work.

The items im getting made are the following. (this prob be the kit)
 1 front piece above the windshield between the roof and winshield ( thanks to a fellow member)
 1 of ((each)) side rail to roof seals (drivers and pass Side)
 1 the piece that goes around the tailgate
 1 the piece that goes around the lift gate
 1 the long straight piece that goes under the tailgate ( L shaped )

  So thats 5 pieces, 4 of which are copied of my all most perfect 74 pieces (i compared them to my 80 and saw no diff) except the piece that goes between the windshield and the roof that was from a 75 and latter.

  This set will fit 75 to 80, i will check the main diff on my 74 and see what i will have to send him when i get my set.

Think i got the problem solved, guess you guys are done guessing on the price.....

  Bed rail pieces left & right                $60 for the pair.
  Hatch/ rear window gate seal           $100-120
  Tail gate to body seal                     $80-100
  L shape piece under tailgate             $45
  Windshield corner pieces left & right   $25
  Windshield to roof 1 x 1/4 x 6ft         $6

He might do better on a kit price. For right now $356. All new rubber...
 Hopefully not to high, best i can do for you all......

darn.... now I have to sell stuff to get that money... is their a number to order them?

Thanks for the info Paul. Now when get me start placing orders

As soon as he gets enuff pieces made ill post the info.....
