Window Sweepers are the horizontal strips with the fur or whiskers that sweep the glass as the window moves up and down. The ones I got looked to have come off a giant roll.
It appears that many items listed att Bernbaums for a particular year are not specific to that year, but are instead an "acceptable" substitute that's pretty close. I was pretty unhappy with the window gaskets that I got. They listed LeBaron as a different part number and all, with the smaller rear window. I got what amounted to a shorter piece of extruded rubber that was not a closed circle, but was meant to be laid in and then the ends trimmed and glued together. Many such items are this way, so beware that some may not be up to scratch, and originals, especially the front and rear window gaskets should be saved at all costs unless they're really truly goners.
While we're on windows: Don't let the glass shop cut your front glass out (on the 57-63 models at least). There is an easy to pop out a seam in the gasket that once opened, allows the gasket to be bent open to remove the glass and then be reused.
Good luck.

Are we safe to "assume" that in his online catalog by "1963-64 CHRYSLER 4-DR SEDAN", that Andy means Imperial too?? Wonder if the "Window sweepers" listed are the type with the flat stainless steel tops and the cat whiskers?
