RE: Door rubbers 1970 chevy c-10
Hello Group,
I just purchased a 1970 Chevy C-10 and am now in the process of putting it together. I have found most of the items I need except the rubber that goes around the doors. I have tried LMC, Year One and neither of them carry the rubbers. Can someone suggest a place where I can order the rubbers?? Advice or suggestions appreciated.....

Truck shop in Orange carries them I believe. Have never used them, so don't know how the fit is.

Best fitting ones I have found are dodge Dakota 86-96 out of a junkyard. Dirt cheap, clip on, no glue or mess, not too tight that you have to slam the door shut.

GMC Paul's carries Precision rubber.

My question is, on the door opening weather strip, do people use the more expensive 'press-on' type or the cheaper glue on? What's better?

I just picked up a set and they are really nice. The press on ones from GMCPauls are nice, but I could never get my doors adjusted where I didn't have to slam the door to get it to close. May have been operator error or 2 new doors on a 45 year old truck. Either way, the Dakota ones did the trick for me.

Re: Door rubbers 1970 chevy c-10
Thank you all for the advice and suggestions. I ordered from GMC Pauls. I'm just starting to put this truck together and one step at a time. Next I'm gonna want to add sound proofing and heat resister for the cab. I've already seen a thread here with suggestions. I'm gonna like this group. Thanks for the welcome
