1962 convertible top weather strip

[Jeff C.]

Does anyone know where I can find a detailed drawing or parts list for the weather strip assembly on the front of the top? My weather strip does not fit properly and is held in place with 2 metal strips and 3 different types of screws I have looked in the AIM , the 1953-1962 Corvette Service Guide, and both the 1961 & 1962 Passenger car manual with no luck.
Thanks

Call Ken at "Orindales" (731-783-0815) for a parts list, don't know of any detailed drawings. Ken was a big help when I was putting a frame together that had been apart for several years. Dale at Al Knoch would be another source but much hared to get a hold of.

Hi! Jeff

Just completed installing an Al Knoch top on my 61. I believe that the 62 and 61 are the same. The windshield weather strip is held in place by one metal strip. Two strips were for the earlier tops, and I am not sure if the screw hole locations would be the same. I had two types of screws, two were pan head metal screws and attached the out side edges through the double over top. The balance of the screws were machine thread and attached to a t-nut type fastener that slides in a channel. If pictures will help, let me know. Al Knoch has a video that was very helpful in the installation of the convertible top.
