G'day,
Need to locate some replacement seal channels, deck and bonnet [1 of each] locally if possible.
Available in 3' lengths from States for $8.00 ea, a "gazillion" for freight!
Any clues would be greatly appreciated.
Regards.
Phil.

Thanks, have found what I need, thanks Lee, and all responders!
Phil

Hi

I got rid of them and went to Mexican seals instead. They are a rust trap.

Not the easiest to fit the original seals, and check if you have any rust in the channel. It is your choice at the end of the day. This is a link to when I did our car so it was still original. I used good quality West Coast Metric seal.
