Another Mopar Off My Bucket List - Barracuda Fastback

Thanks ssba. Your advice has helped a lot.

CLEAN UP THE RUBBER!!! Now it may sound easy but so far that's the hardest part of this job. There was 3 colors of paint on it, rust, adhesive, and some hard white stuff that really didn't want to come off (neither did that adhesive). I've been scrubbing with lacquer thinner for 2 hours along with scraping the inner channel out with a putty knife. I should have checked the price of a new seal because cleaning this thing has been a real pain in the behind. As much as I claim to like working on cars I think that most of the jobs suck.

I was dumb enough to go without gloves. No serious cuts, but the edge of that glass is sharp as... ... GLASS! I also managed to slice myself once with the putty knife as I was cleaning the rubber. I guess I should have 911 on speed dial. The way my memory is, I'd likely forget the number if I needed it.
