Wing window seal
Any options to replace these? I'm guessing B1600 or courier would work, but can anyone say for sure?

*Ought* to be identical to...
...same years Courier. The door dimensions are the same...
Try researching 'obsolete' Ford parts sources on the 'net. Someone, *somewhere* prolly has the Courier ones gathering dust (and hardening) on a back shelf...

Thanks!
Trucks about where it was, still got a tranny to swap and a carb to rebuild. (I'm a lazy arse!)Thought I'd see if I can find the wing window seals, as one of them doesn't.
Seal, I mean.
Runs great, just gotta squirt the starter fluid when starting cold, but just got the NAPA carb kit in, should be the cure!

Word to the wise!
I just returned from my mazda dealer after ordering both wing window 'vent' weatherstripping seals.
The computer said there was only 5 more of each side left, then they ain't no mo'!
I ordered the ones from an 84 B2000, I trust they are the same. Around $22 each.

Any chance you have the part#?

Sure!
I shoulda thought of that...
8788-58-491 Passenger side
8788-59-491 Driver side
Of course, what I should have done was order them all and sell 'em to you guys for a jillion dollars..:)
Not that anyone around HERE would consider such a thing.
Damn, my interfering concience..that's why I stay broke..
Klaus would have took me to the 'cyber woodshed' anyhow.
Order them quick, and good luck!

'Cyber Woodshed'?
Thanks.
(Guess that means you didn't pick up a set for me, prior to posting about the 'last five' on the internet, huh?)
"Community Service" sure is a PITA... isn't it?

Sorry!

That sucks..kinda wish I hadn't said anything..
Just like bringing candy to school, teacher says , "Well, Mikey, did you bring enough for everybody?"
Wonder, though, if a ford dealer could get them? Same as a courier, right?
The cyber woodshed remark was referring to another post where 'someone' was selling parts for a "ahem' substantial markup...or no price, something like that. Seems I remember ol' Klaus cloudin' up and rainin' on somebody.

Yeah, well...
...it's a *ridiculous*, crazy world... isn't it.
...or maybe my opinions are... not longer valid.

Klaus, your opinions do count!
I searched for courier wing seals for you, sorry could not find anything online.

Next time I'm by a ford dealer I'll stop in the parts dept. and see if there's any chance courier ones are still 'gettable'.

Contrary to my earlier "Dammit" I got my order in for this part before it sold out... I bought 1 left and one right... Cost me $18 and change each from onlinemazdaparts.com...
However, did anyone see the ones up on ebay a week or 2 ago? The auction went for $167... Not sure what to say about it... I hope the person just bought one extra and decided to sell them instead of the idea that that one person bought out all the remaining stock just to make some $ on ebay...

Some will probably disagree with me, but to me the purpose of this forum is to help one another out, like mwpayne did when he posted the part#s... It sucks that as the parts for our trucks get rarer and rarer, we have to be afraid to post part#s on our own enthusiast forum...

I dunno, those had been sitting in stock a long time, then BAM..gone. You know, the thought didn't even cross my mind to hoard the parts for profit. When my parts guy told me how many were left, I just wrote the parts down, went right home and posted.
Maybe someone had some other stock of these..but I doubt it. I've got nothing against capitalism, but I would not have taken advantage...just my personal choice. In hindsight I wish I HAD bought them up and resold them here..for what I paid + shipping.

I do agree... (despite my piss-poor February attitude!)...
