Let me know if you find a source for weatherstripping, especially for the tailgate. Mine is so sunbaked that every time I close the tailgate, more chunks fall off. ------------- 1972 Gran Torino station wagon, light blue, 351C 2V, prior owner upgraded to 4V (2V heads), originally had a C4 but prior owner changed to C6 for some reason. |

Welcome and post some pics when ya get a chance. Wagon parts are tough to come by, but they are still out there. I sourced my tailgate weather stripping from Ebay, but it took along time to source one, but I still see them pop up every now and again. Same with the bumper. Good luck with the hunt....  ------------- Carlos....1975 Gran Torino Squire Station Wagon restored to look like a 1973 Torino Station Wagon my Dad bought new from McAnary Ford on June 6, 1973 in Gary,Indiana |

For weatherstripping, you can contact Steele Rubber. They built a custom catalog for me for my 1973 Gran Torino. https://www.steelerubber.com/" rel="nofollow - https://www.steelerubber.com/ Otherwise eBay may list it. -Chris ------------- Chris Fairview, PA '1973 Ford Gran Torino |
