Hi everyone
I am in need of new rubber for my ‘71 GT 1750.
From reading this forum I understand that the best rubber replacement parts come from Cicognani in Italy.
I recall (if memory serves) that the rubber kits from Classicalfa are in fact made by Cicognani.
Can anyone confirm whether this is actually the case or not, as I have in the past bought rubber replacement parts that just did not work (‘71 VW Westfalia campervan restoration).
A price comparison does make the Cicognani rubber a bit more expensive, however I’m thinking it may be worth it if the parts fit perfectly straight away, rather than requiring some fettling.
The Panelbeater who is doing the metalwork on my Alfa says he has tried new front and rear windscreen rubber (I don’t know the source) which was a poor fit, so I’m keen to purchase a ‘known’ or vouched for product.
Any experiences with rubber kits from Classicalfa or kits from Cicognani (in particular the door rubbers and front/rear windscreen rubbers)?
Thanks guys.
Jason
