<VV> EM trunk weatherstrip

[Devin]

Steve-  The weatherstripping on my wife's 63 is original, and the trunk seal
splits at the front center.  Let me know how yours goes, as I will be doing
hers sometime before winter.

Any suggestions on if there is a "best" place to start the placement of new
weather-stripping on the trunk, i.e., should the seam be at the nose point,
in the middle of the back, or on a corner, etc.?  Also, do any of the books
offer tips/suggestions on how to replace any or all of the
weather-stripping, engine seals, etc.?

(I don't know if you longtime Corvair pros realize how reassuring it its to
have your experience and wisdom available to us rookies.  As I talk to
people about my new restoration project (having restored Corvettes, Mustangs
and a 1957 Ford Skyliner in the past), I regularly tell them that having
this forum available has made working on this project more enjoyable and the
least stressful of all.  I encourage all of them to give it a try
themselves, knowing that there is a safety net for any issue that may arise.
The humor shared amongst longtime friends is only icing on the cake.)

Thanks in advance,
