I aquired two T34 Ghia's a couple of years ago, one simi custom(63) and a parts car (62). been fooling around for a while but it's time to get it on the road. I need windshield and rear window seal's. Got two new ones with the car but it is ill fitting (too long) and hard. After interior was done and we installed the windshield, poor fit and our lack of expertice caused us to crack it :oops: . I called WCM and steve knew of no suppliers for these seals. I was hoping someone knows where I can some UK perhaps?

Hubby says, "You can try ISPwest, talk to Alex, he's the T34 guy there, to see if they have one in stock."

But, Bob thinks they get the seals from Simon Kelley, who you can contact directly at: [email protected]

Simon's seals are much less expensive ... and he's a reliable UK supplier that ships the packages out quickly & safely. Good guy to know as he has many other T34 seals you're going to need sooner or later.

I suggested ISP, as they were semi-local to him, and that we in the type 3 community should support those who are doing a service on a whole for type 3 owners by supplying parts. Sure, he might have gotten the seal cheaper thru Simon ( I had Sue include a link to him), but when you add shipping, pay pal fees, and playing e-mail tag, it'll be quicker to deal with someone local. I mean, ISP West IS selling Simon's seals, so Simon gets paid. According to him, he's actually been inundated for seal orders lately, so having some one like ISP take some of the demand off him can't hurt.
