"Today, I cleaned up the right side door seal retainer strip that I bought. This coupe-only part is no longer available and is not being made as an aftermarket part due to its limited demand".

"Moss part 457-240 retainer door sill for an MGB. Those are the SS pieces from Moss for the MGB GT. The new part is 3/4 shorter than the original. The profiles are close but not perfect. I plan to run it through the bead roller to get the nice curved radius and then the shrinker stretcher to get the slight upward bend".
