Rubber parts for 1950 Prefect E493A

[als]

Does anyone have an idea where I can source replacement rubber for the running boards and the rear window seal(the window has the bakelite trim)?

My only source in England doesn't carry either...

Thanks

Thanks, but they are the ones who don't carry them.

Try Anglia Obsolete. I'd bet he, Dean Kirsten, has the window rubber but probably not the running boards. I don't think those are availabel anywhere as they have to be molded to fit the curves at the front and rear. A friend made a trip to Australia a couple of years ago and brought me back a set but they aren't molded to fit the ends. I haven't yet decided how to finish them off.

Hey, my car has a 6 inch piece missing from the back window trim. I have all the others but have never found that one. I believe that is the only piece I am missing now. Do you have any suggestions where I might look?

Hi,

Take a look at this Australian site:

https://www.scottsoldautorubber.com.au/

I don't know if they have what you are looking for, but they sure list a lot of rubber parts!

I have not had any dealings with them, NFI, YMMV, just passing along an interesting link.

Good luck,

Thanks Mike but I'm looking for the bakelite molding for the back window. I already have a new rubber.
