Title: Window channel
Post by: boughtabobcat on October 08, 2014, 01:20:01 AM

Anyone know what size/type replacement window channel to get for a 1978 Mercury Bobcat base wagon? I have found a place online to get some for a reasonable price, but there are a lot of choices, and I don't want to pull the old channel out to get measurements because it might be a week or more until the new would come in - any help is appreciated! Here's a link to the place I would order from:

Used it on my 80 Pinto and it fits and looks great. Go for it.
