Windshield rubber.
I am planning to replace the windshield on my ´66 F-100. I already got the windshield and now I am looking for the rubber. Which is the best place to buy the rubber (best quality)? / Hans

Before you go out and actually buy the part it might be a good idea to also check the local Ford dealer. I have found several things that were cheaper from the dealer. When I replaced the rubber on my F100 window it was cheaper from the dealer because I saved the shipping. Just a thought.

What is the shipping typically cost from the west coast to Sweden? I may have an idea on where to get one at a fairly good price. I was going to get it for my 66 f100 but if they are harder to get where you are I might be able to help. Send me an e-mail through my user name and we can go from there.

Back to emphasize what John stated in his reply post; make sure you order the right rubber, either for standard cab not with chrome trim around the glass or Custom cab glass rubber; shipping that far would be a drag if you order the wrong one. I used a lmc rubber; seems to fit great; but I would definetly check D/C first for price ing.
D/c rubber is $40 & the they state to call for international shipment pricing. Lmc is $29.95 an about the same problem with determing cost for overseas shipping. The cost is for either standard cab or C/C windshields..
Just to add insult to injury...

I have a custom cab so I ordered rubber for the chrome molding. I got an estimate shipping cost from Dennis Carpenter so I hope that will be about right. I was looking at ebay for a one but I did not find one. My truck is scheduled to arrive in Sweden on the 6th of June and shortly after that I will change the windshield. I did buy a ´61 Chev Apace before I bought the Ford but now since I got the F-100 I will sell the Chev. Thanks for all the info - this is a great place to be a part of. / Hans
