I know this may lead to many people's opinions...etc. But I have seen multiple places selling body seals for my 73 SB. Everywhere from eBay to Jbugs, ISP, etc. Who has the right stuff? Best quality/price? I am sure my car needs just about every seal possible, but for sure my door seals, hood and hatch seal. Thanks! I am located in the states, so would rather not have to purchase from across the pond.

I replaced all the seals on my '73 SB through ISP West.

I feel they could have done a bit better job with the profile on the hatch seal.

I did spring for the pricey ($150ea ?) door seals and feel it was money well spent.

If I were to do another car, I'd buy from them again.

Thanks..that's at least a start. I know it looks like ISP West has a lot of nice stuff. If only I could find a pile of money laying around!

Fifteen years ago there was West Coast Metric plus a few remaining junkyards. Now there are many vendors. I have used ISP West for about five years. They recently restored my '71 fastback and all the seals look to be very good, with the right profiles. I can't speak to Notch and Square unique seals though.
