Does anyone know the part number for the windshield gasket for a 1967 Dodge Dart 270 2 door hardtop?

I can't find this gasket anywhere, and I need the part number to search the various NOS databases. Does anyone have a gasket I can buy? This is the only year with the locking strip, and the 2 door, 4 door and convertible are all different sizes, from what I can gather. Mine is a 2 door hardtop.

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks in advance for any help.

Unless you are doing a 100+ point concours never-ever-driven restoration, put in the '68-up gasket and trim setup. The one-year-only '67 setup sucks and parts (such as the gasket) are N/A.

Yeah, I had that happen where the mom and pop glass place called their supplier for the gasket and windshield for my '67 4 door signet...glass no problem...gasket they said was for a '67....was for a '68....

I could go with the '68 setup, just have to put clips and such. BUT...I already happen to have new lock seal and corners for the '67 gasket, it would be a shame to waste it...anyone have the part number, or know where to look on the existing gasket for the part number?

thanks,

'67Dart270

Does anyone know, is the '68 set up the same for 2 door vs 4 door, that is, what '68 gasket do I use to replace a '67 2 door hardtop gasket?

Use the gasket for a '68-'76 2-door hardtop (Swinger/Scamp, not Duster/Demon).

According to the old man who put my windshield in, nobody makes the dam kit that goes on after the windshield and gasket are in place. Nobody even knows what it is, or how to use it, except really old people like him of course. It is essentially a strip of butyl rubber which goes all the way around the windshield on the flange snug up against the gasket slit on that side. It is the final seal and directs water away from the gasket. The trim covers this. No matter what you do, they are pretty leak prone. If I were going to restore my car again, I would weld an extension all the way around the existing flange that I could glue the windshield to, just like a modern set up.

HOw do you spell butyl? Spell check thought I was trying to spell butler. :lol:
