Anyone have any experience with Mis America/Tweeks' repro seals? I'm contemplating loading up with the 25%-off sale. Can I get them somewhere else cheaper anyway?

That's kinda what I was asking. Does anyone know the source of their repro seals? Are they made for Tweeks or do they just buy from someone else?(Like AA, hopefully not.) Has any one bought repro seals from them? |

Pretty much all of the rubber products used in restoration are made by a couple of companies. Tweeks uses a company in either Washington or Oregon called Precision Rubber. They have had fit problems on some cars that I have had, most notably Datsun Z cars but they are very responsive and have made adjustments to the kits when something doesn't fit.
I would google Precision Rubber and deal direct. My experience with Tweeks has been basically good but at 25% off they are usually just approaching what others consider to be retail. Good luck... Rob |

Another question I would ask, is if the kit includes "everythig". AA lowered their price on the all inclusive kit, but they also removed some parts.
