1966 Cowl to Hood Seal

[eaglenest66]

Looking for a little bit help here! Input mainly! After producing the early driver side air box seal, I managed to also have produced the square stock seal that sits atop the cowl. Mine measures 56 1/4" from end to end and is positioned straight across at 10 3/4" back from the front cowl lip. Pictures attached are of my original early '66 and a former original owner's later '66.

If anyone with an original '66, please post the length and measurement back from the cowl lip of your seal. It would also be appreciated if you could verify whether your's is an early (August thru October '65) production rig or later.

Please post pics if you have them. I will be making this seal available soon. thanks, tim

Well appears quality control was out the window a bit.

Mine is 55-3/8" long. Shorter and if you see the pics it is shorter on the driver side. I thought at first it was cut but not sure if it shrunk or was cut. If it was cut is was cut clean as it is a nice smooth factory looking cut. Not sure%)


same measurement back - 10-3/4"

Cant wait to see ya Tim. Its been a bit. Hope we have nice weather. It snowed today...WTF.
