As a car enthusiast, Lynn Steele was in the midst of restoring his own 1931 twelve-cylinder Cadillac Town Sedan when he realized that he could not find the right rubber parts for his project. Utilizing his own tool and die experience, Mr. Steele used the original weatherstrip from his Cadillac to create detailed reproductions for his car. Once word spread about the man that created detailed rubber reproduction parts, a business was born... and they’re still producing the best rubber products for your car today !  Check it out !
