Welcome!
I'm in Bremerton occasionally; 4 Aces (?) Junkyard is tops! Say hi if you see us around town in Earl Grey here.
I am looking for window channels as well, for our drivers side. Maybe somebody knows which ones, if any, to order from:
http://stores.restorationspecialties.com/-strse-Window-Channel/Categories.bok
Are these any good or is custom the way to go?
Thanks in advance!

Hey welcome to the forum Finishline!! I sent you a PM since you;re in the local area. I really want to network and organize with other local vintage vanners here in the Puget SOund area.
Wookee's (joe Russin) kits are the way to go for the window fuzzies. I have used them and I recommend it. Good quality and I think its a better price than resto specialties, or steele rubber and best of all you are supporting a grass-roots early chevy vanner home business.
Chroma66, your van is looking good!

Kooky is right. I got my fuzzies from Wookee and they are top notch.
