corvette rubber has great prices for weatherstripping. They make the stuff that ecklers and mid america, and many other vendors sell. I don't have their address right now, but I'll look it up. I dunno about rocker mouldings though.

I also recommend Riks. ZIP Corvettes offers a discount for Forum members, and you can order the parts through the "Restoration Store" right here on the forum. Good luck in your search. Can I give you my birthday list too? I was a good boy! :jester :D :D
