RUBBER BODY SEALS AND GASKETS
FUZZY DOOR SEALS (DRAUGHT EXCLUDERS),
TR3A, TR3B, 1958-63
This seal is made from a strip of wool moquette wrapped around a rubber tube.
TRF has traditionally supplied a length of seal which is long enough to make the four
seals for one car. This leaves the customer to cut the piece supplied into the four pieces
required for in front of each door and behind each door. To make a finished end, strip a
bit of the moquette material back and cut off a short end of the tube. Then fold the
material to cover the end of the tube and make a finished end. The front-of-door seals
are cemented to the sheet metal along the curve of the scuttle end panels in front of the
doors with the fuzzy part sealing draughts from entering the cockpit in front of the
doors. The finished edge of the scuttle end carpet is then installed to hide the raw edge
of the seal. The rear-of-door seals are installed similarly to seal draughts from entering
at the rear of the door. The rear seals are secured with tacks to a strip found under the
front edge of the rear quarter-trim panel. If the old tacking strip is gone, I usually
whittle a new one from soft wood with my packet knife. Upon installation, the front
edge of the quarter trim panel will hide the raw edge of the seal and the tacking strip.
