47-55.1 Installing door weather strip on '51 Chevrolet

[Zippi]

Only took about a month but my door seals came in later yesterday. This morning I cleaned the DS door and applied the larger "D" shaped seal on the door. I was hoping to shut the door and find no resistance as the smaller seal for the cab has not been applied yet. What I found was the door is very tight and will close if I slam it hard. I had to remove the little rubber door stop off the striker plate. Well.....at least the door did shut this time vs the SoftSeal door seals. I'm not sure why my doors are so tight. It has me baffled.
