57 truck ?
Can someone post a pic so i can see the right way to install the door weatherstripping on a 57 truck. Any help would be grateful. The weatherstripping came from lmc, and its for the 57 model. Thanks.

Re: 57 truck ?
I don't have a photo but I know the "right" way is NOT the way that looks right. The rubber isn't supposed to follow the contour of the door, it's supposed to sorta fold with the closing of the door to eliminate air noise.

Brothers has a photo gallery when you go to their door weather stripping for the '57.
