Weather Stripping & Rubber Parts for Classic Cars

JEGS offers a wide range of weatherstripping solutions specifically designed for classic cars. In this section, we will explore the importance of classic car weatherstrip, how to replace it on a classic car, and the cost associated with this restoration process.

Weatherstripping plays a vital role in classic cars by providing a barrier against the elements. It consists of specialized rubber seals and gaskets that prevent water, air, and dust from entering the vehicle's interior. Properly functioning weatherstripping ensures a comfortable and dry cabin, protects the car's interior from potential damage, and reduces noise levels while driving.

Replacing weather stripping on a classic car requires careful attention to detail. Here are the steps to follow:

1. Identify the areas where the weatherstripping needs replacement, such as windows, doors, trunk, and hood.
2. Remove the old weatherstripping by gently peeling it off or using appropriate tools.
3. Thoroughly clean the surfaces to ensure proper adhesion of the new weatherstripping.
4. Cut the new weatherstripping to the required length and attach it firmly to the corresponding areas.
5. Ensure a tight fit and smooth operation of windows, doors, and other moving parts after installation.

The cost of replacing weather stripping on a classic car varies depending on several factors, including the make and model of the vehicle and the extent of the replacement required. On average, you can expect to spend between $200 and $500 for a complete weatherstripping replacement. However, prices may vary based on the specific needs of your classic car (for example, classic car window weatherstrip) and the quality of the weatherstripping materials chosen.
