First I have looked all over online, and I can not find anyone who offers weather stripping for my van. I have not checked my local parts store but is this where everyone is getting their weather stripping for windows and doors? Next I have two panels that have had the seems start to come apart. I figure that getting them apart is not all that tough, but what is used to bond them. Is it a JB Weld type or something else. THANKS ALL!

How great. Thanks for the info, unfortunately with your help I found that I'm hosed! There is nothing on the market. Oh well nothing more satisfying than restoring old parts! Thank you for your help though!

There are a lot of generic weather strippings you can use but none will look like the factory ones. There is a place in Rialto, Calif. That has a large room full of what looks like dozens of different styles. They sell it by the foot. I bought some there for a 59 Ford panel I built. It worked perfect on the doors.

Thanks for the welcome! After LOTS of research I came across this company! Classic Auto Parts Works for me since it is only about 4 hours away!!! This is the ONLY company that I have found that carries ANY weatherstripping specifically for the second gen econo. So far I have only found the front windshield weatherstripping, but that is really the only one I was worried about. Hopefully this helps someone who owns a second gen econo. Also to the tons of first gen owners they have parts for you too, but your probably used to that. HA!
