Default What weather strip for my 68 convertible?

I will be removing and replacing the weather stripping on my 68 convertible. Will be replacing doors, windows and covertible top. I did this on my 82 a few years back and was very dissapointed on the fit and final sealing of the individual pieces! I don't remember exactly what type I installed but I did buy all the pieces from either Zip or Paragon. Can anybody suggest were to buy and what type of weather strip kit that is the best fitting and most accurate ?? Thanks, Tom.

Corvette Rubber Company is suppose to have the best weather strips. Just ask your vender who makes their product. CRC is made in America. Import stuff is no good. I do not know who makes Dr. Rebuild weather stripping. Does anyone know? Lou.

I've purchased convertible top and door weatherstripping from Willcox - both fit perfectly.

For what it's worth...my 68 convertible top weatherstripping was replaced by Al Knoch when he installed my new convertible top. Appears to be excellent.
