Hello, I am beginning the long road to re-assembling my '79 Monte after getting it painted. The quarter windows are ready to go back in. However, I need the seal that goes along the bottom that has the chrome strip attached to it (see picture). Also, the piece on the rear of the quarter window.... is it just the chrome piece or is there a seal on it as well? Or just the "window tar?" Anyway, I believe I am in need of both pieces for the driver and passenger sides. In the diagram, I believe they are #11 & 12.

78AND80MC, I tried Dixie Monte Carlo and Matt replied to me that they didn't have anything. The search continues......

Sal,
Struck out on http://www.thepartsplaceinc.com & http://www.opgi.com. However, haven't heard back from http://www.chevroletrestorationworld.com yet. Found a guy in GA that makes them, but he is in Afganistan as a contractor with the USMC! He said he won't be back for a while. I'm not giving up yet, but mine are past repairing. Hopefully I can get some from a junkyard that are not destroyed. Thanks for all the help!

I have nearly given up trying to find an in-tact Gen 3 Monte here in Iowa. Most have been used at dirt tracks and destroyed. Thus I have 2 followup questions:

1. Will a rubber seal from the bottom of the quarter window of a Malibu or a newer LS Monte work? If so, what should be the model year range?
2. Outside of Iowa, where are the greatest stashes of 3rd generation Monte Carlo junk yards?

Once again, I'd need the lower seals for both quarter windows and perhaps the trim piece of the rear of the window.

Thanks again,

Russ
