The way I did it was bring it to a small body shop around the corner. They did all of the door weatherstrip for $200....I supplied the parts.

I got a tube of water based KY jelly, which made it an easy job. What's a real bummer is after all the effort to rebuild the vent windows the repro seals started cracking within 6 months of being exposed to the sun.

Re: Vent window rubber install?
Haven't done the 67-72 yet but we're planning on it. We did 73-80 which are similar and will give you the idea on how to tackle it.
Let me know if you have any questions! Derek
