I bought my seals from Ecklers but there are many that carry them. I believe Last Detail has good seals.
Check out this thread on vendors.

Jerry,
Dont use Ecklers, I bought mine from them and had to throw them away. The door seals especially were so oversized that I could hardly get the doors to close. The ones I got through Corvette Central were a perfect fit.

I shopped around and bought the least expensive ones I could find on ebay. They fit fine, but I could not close the doors, unless I really slammed the heck out of them. I was bummed, but after about a month or two they closed fi ne and seal well.

I've heard a lot of forum members use Corvette Rubber as the brand.

I have their weatherstrip on my C4. Fast shipping and the fit was very good. I can't speak for the C3 stuff though..........
