Title: 1960 Rear Grill to Body Seal?
Post by: TrevorK on July 04, 2020, 01:21:11 PM
I'm in the process of putting in an order for the rubber on my '60 CDV.  The Rubber The Right Way website lists a "rear grill to body seal" that is for "all models.  I don't see a seal like this on my car or on my parts car.  I'm not sure if it's something I need (that's missing from both my cars) or is not applicable to my car and is for an Eldorado.  Does anyone know?

Well, no luck with this one it seems.  I won't order it now - I can't install it if I don't know what it is or where it goes.  :)

I believe this may be a ‘59 only part.  My ‘59 had one; my ‘60 does not, and I don’t see a slot for it to fit into.

Thanks for confirming David. They have it listed as a 59-60 part, but likewise I don’t see where it would go. I didn’t order one with my order!
