Looking for a Side Window Channel

Hi Everyone, Looking at working on the F1 again.

I'm looking at replacing my Windows in my '49. Has anyone found a good source for the Window Channel (the one on the bottom of the glass, lift)? Should I look for original or are there some good new ones out there. I need one, but might change both out. If someone has one laying around let me know what ya got! Thanks Everyone!

Yes I'm looking for #4... Have you tried the ones from LMC? Any problems? I talked to one guy that said the opening seemed wider to him as he had a hard time keeping the glass in, until he used a liquid glass sealant/glue on both the inside and outside of #5 - Channel Rubber.

I only ordered the parts shown in item #7 didn't need the part you're inquiring about ..... I used a 3M adhesive when installing the glass to the lift channel.

I also had a problem with my 56 Glass Track being oversized so I used this 1/4" edge trim on the bottom of the Window and it worked perfect
