Snip<< To you I may be "just foolish," but I of course see it differently.

I like adventures, this is the main reason I bought an Amphicar. And, for
me
part of the adventure is fixing the car myself, whenever possible, and
experimenting when I have a "better idea."...

I am most grateful to have Gordon Imports available and I have bought a
bunch
of stuff from them....

To me the door seals on the body are just another case where I think I have a
better idea. If my Frost King weather seal works out, I will again have a
nice sense of accomplishment. If they don't, then I'll buy a set of door
seals from Gordon's....


I understand that many people prefer not to experiment with things and
prefer
the tried-and-true. This is a perfectly good approach, but try to
understand
that some of us like the adventure of experimenting and doing it our own way.

Hi Roger,
Congratulations on having the true sprit of Amphicar experimentation.

I must say that you are not the first to try the frost king gaskets just the
latest to bring them up. Although it is possible to have a better idea I
think you will find that this is not it. I would be curious if anyone who
has tried them is still using them.

I urge you to keep that sprit, Amphicar ownership gets better every day.
