New guy here, working on getting my '48 Fleetmaster on the road. We just painted the door jambs and edges and we can't figure out the hinge side weather strip. I bought the Steele kit and I have the Shop manual. I do not have the metal retainer as it was rusted out and I threw it away 27 years ago when I took the car apart. Which explains why I have no recollection of how it goes. I plan on just gluing the new piece on. Can anyone provide a couple pics of it one the car? I'm sure I can get it close, but want it to be perfect so I have no leaks. Any suggestions or tips would be welcome as well.

Thanks, 

Walt (48Builder)

here's the cowl with paint on it
