Re: 64-66 door weatherstrip-EUREKA!!!!

Before I go ahead and rip out the new door weather stripping I installed last fall on my 1964, I need your opinions first.......

I did a complete frame-off last year including new rocker panels and partial floors. I was very careful to make sure the doors and rockers lined up before welding everything to assure no issues arose when installing everything down the road. Prior to installing the door weather stripping, my doors shut and lined up perfectly. After installation of the weather stripping, I had to literally use two hands to shut the door. I was hoping over the winter the seals would break-in and allow me to shut the doors normally....but they still require a "slam" to shut.

Before I rip out the repo weather stripping and get a set of Honda; is there anything else I can check or do to make sure it is a weather stripping fitment issue rather than a door adjustment issue??

Thanks in advance....Dan
