Re: 1960 GMC Suburban

Since this project is now back on the road and hopefully all the way to the finish line, I need two important items ASAP.

Which full electrical harness for the 60 Burb is recommended ? I want to buy a complete replacement.

Also, at this point, which supplier has the best fitting side glass window rubber ? I have a local company that will cut the glass unless somebody knows a supplier that might be cheaper.

The Burb is finally going to paint and I need to pull all the glass. I have a company ready to install new glass but they even said I should look for a good supplier of the rubber.

Any leads on original style upholstery would be appreciated. I know there was a place up in Oregon or Washington State that had it, but I haven't located the place yet.

Excited to get this starting to roll again. Installed the new radiator, cleaned and tightened up the the water circuit with all new hoses, gaskets etc. Finishing up the carb rebuild and the gas system with my temp tank will be completed too.

As always, any & all suggestions and comments welcome. Not worried about haters here since this isn't a Ford forum

Steele Rubber is the only way to go. They have all the rubber parts for the windshield, side, and rear. You will need other parts for the sliders though.

Sanders Reproduction Glass makes all the glass and their patterns are right-on.
