69 Camaro Roof Rail Weatherstips
 

I bought this pair of roof rail weatherstrips in 1977. They were stored in an attached garage, in the boxes for years. In 1996, I took them out of the boxes and hung them in an indoor closet, figuring that would be a better way to store them, and it has worked out very well.

Soft, pliable, with absolutley no tears. Guaranteed GM parts with the squiggly wire reinforcement. I think they fit 68 models as well, but have never checked any kind of cross reference.

With prices being what they are, I figured I better score now if I am ever going to sell them. They really belong on a high dollar car, like a COPO or a ZL1.

$1800 includes shipping to lower 48. Yeah, I know, that is ridiculous, but try finding another set in perfect condition.

You can call me at 405 826-6805. I am on central time.

If I find a pair in my barn does someone else want to pay 1800.00 ?

Charley if you find a pair we can sell those and the GM Drip Rails they mount to that I have as a set. Wonder what we could get for something like that!!!

Charley:

First, you are assuming, I guess, that I actually got $1800 for them. Maybe I did and maybe not. The buyer contacted me privately so I will respect his privacy.

Secondly, if you have a set in the barn (do you really mean "barn" or are you talking about that beautiful show room?) that are as nice as these, I can tell you the market will probably bear $1800. The last pair of truly NICE ones that were on ebay got over $1500 when they mysteriously were pulled. That tells me someone contacted the seller and made him an offer he couldn't refuse.

As long as the prices on the high dollar trailer queens keep going up, so will the prices on early NOS parts like this. Is it ridiculous? No doubt. Do I feel guilty? Almost, but not quite. Hey, oil may crash, housing may crash, and the muscle car market may go the way of the Ferrari market in the mid 80's. I decided to take the money while is was available. Funny thing is my wife bought a Krugerrand about the same time as I bought these weatherstrips. She paid $480. I paid about $25 bucks. She recently decided to dump some gold, and got $505 for the Krugerrand. Bet none of the 70's financial gurus told us to invest in GM weatherstrips.

Pretty funny, huh? Who knew.

OK, for you smart alecs that thought I was high on my NOS roof rail weatherstrips, check this out:

Sorry, you will have to copy and paste, can't get the link to work.


Guess I left a little on the table. Still, no regrets as I know they went to a good home (car), and I would still rather sell stuff like that on this board.

Still waiting to see if a pair of these goes for more than my car cost new.
