Rudy no longer has any trunk gasket material in stock for the HJ. I ended up using a GM trunk weatherstrip that fit something like a mid 70s Chevy. I will look for the part number and post it when (if) I find it.

FYI - Rudy still has the '51-'55 Kaiser version of the trunk gasket. It is very different from the HJ version and would not make a good substitute.

Edgar Kaiser's custom 1951 Henry J
1951 Kaiser Special
1952 Allstate Deluxe

I used trunk seal part number MMP-TK46-18 and bought it from Summit Racing. Twenty bucks shipped.

I was told by one of the rubber suppliers (Steele??) that a 59 Chev trunk rubber will work.
