James, et al., Timo Tanskanen, ex-pat from Finland, 'brokered" my purchase of Horrie's flocked roof-rail, and vertical-window weatherstrips, from the Finland "producer". My cost was around $400.00 (yes, I AM rich) but the quality was impeccable, and the roofrail pieces were of ONE-piece, just like O.E.M., whereas Gary Goers' r-rails are plain-'rubber', in 2-pieces, per side, which need to be carefully cut/trimmed to-fit. If you're into such fetishes, the look/feel of real flocking is mind-boggling. The flocking stays-on, too, as they've adorned H. for 10+ years, now--altho the flocking on/around the bottoms of the H.T. 1/4 windows has aged/worn-off. Timo also sold me the Finnish-made plastic power-seat floor-"troughs" and 1957-style plastic power seat 'housings'. I also think Finnish-made alluminum door sill plates are available. You might say, I'm a real FIN-fan!! Neil V. |
