    Where is the best place to buy new window and door rubber for a 1966 Extended Falcon Van (Custom Club Wagon)? I see they sell the kits at Mac's and Dennis Carpenter's but not sure about the quality. Maybe it's all the same.

    Also looking for new lenses for the turn singles and tail lights and associated gaskets.

    Thanks for the assist.

    Macs sells most of the things you need. A word of warning, the door seals sold by Macs and Dennis Carpenter are said to be terrible and not worth the money. Use the search function here. There's been a fair amount of discussion on the topic. I know from experience the Macs windshield rubber is fine, as are the turn signal lenses. The modern orange lenses are a different shade than old originals, so you shouldn't mix and match.

    Tim Brogan (EconoUSAparts) carries the "best fit" window and door seal kits. He works with the manufacturers on designing them and word is that his fit the best.
