73 rear window weatherstrip ??? That must be pretty rare.
Do you mean the sticky butyl rubber sealer ?

I bought a rear window rubber seal through Paragon Reproductions about a month ago. The seal fit perfectly. I held it in place with Permatex black weatherstrip adhesive.

these are two different windows...xylene from the HD paint dept will clean up all the adhesive on the old seal for the removable window.
