I need the same for a '57 Provincial. At least one glass is cracked and will need to be replaced. -

I don't think I've ever heard of a solution (source) for these. Hopefully somebody knows- I'd take some for a Wagonaire also.
Matt- Yours might be reusable. Don't forget, this isn't a WC or desert car, and she's lived inside for almost 30 years. The seats and such are supple, not burned to a crisp like the "desired" WC cars. Chances are the rubber is still flexible. I'll check it.
I also think I've got a quarter window to replace the cracked one.Proud NON-CASO

I placed an order for both sides with SASCO before they closed (both part numbers were still listed as available at the time). Unfortunately, I was only able to get one side. The situation is probably worse now, but you could still try Studebaker International.Scott Rodgers

I guess Studebaker International doesn't supply these then? I know they have a billion rubber parts.Comment

You could try Steele. I doubt they have a listing for it, but their online catalog shows profiles of the rubber. You might find something that would fit.Chip

Just sent off an info request to the Steele gang after reading this.
We'll see what kind of response they give (which has always been superb for me)...
One can also cut off an inch of old rubber and send it to Steele so they can compare it to their catalog offering(s).
Surely they have something that will work....

Check with Restoration Specialties from Windber Pa. they have a lots of rubber window gaskets and check their online catalog. Possibly something they have on stock will work. jimmijimsigpicAnything worth doing deserves your best shot. Do it right the first time. When you're done you will know it. { I'm just the guy who thinks he knows everything, my buddy is the guy who knows everything.} cheers jimmijim*****SDC***** memberComment

Try a Glass shop, they may have a catalog with some universal weather-strip
