rattling windows

Where would be the best place to get a set of weatherstrip channels that the door windows slide up and down in. These are completely missing from both of my doors and the rattly noise is driving me crazy. My truck is a 1977 F600.
Thanks

Jim

The doors & windows are the same as F100-350s, you can order NEW stuff from suppliers such as Dennis Carpenter, LMC Truck, Auto Krafters, even old JC Whitney, just order whatever you need for a '77 F150 (window wise) & you will be fine!!! Rick

You should be able to get it from out host Ken Payne. I believe he is a Dennis Carpenter reseller and should have those parts. Take a look in the upper right hand corner and punch that ol Online Store button.

Now if he don't have it after that shameless plug for him, we'll just have to raz him a little.

Thanks for the response boys. I had a quick look through some of the websites early this morning. It looks like they will have what I need. I'll let you know how things turn out.

I really appreciate your help. "Ain't" the internet great????

Thanks

Jim
