    Hello everyone,
    I'm seriously looking at a 1988 3807 here in The Thousand Islands area. One area that caught my concern was the sloppy exterior caulking job around the three front windows. My current Riviera suffered from the same problem....over the years, the rubber edging that surrounds the exterior of the glass has shrunk 2-3 inches on each of the four sides of the rectangular glass. Although it's a bit unsightly...the windows don't leak on my Riv, but I'm wondering about the 3807...1) Has anyone been able to source the Carver rubber windshield edging common to several models in the 1980's-90's range ? 2) Has anyone ever tried to replace the rubber trim? 3) Are 3807's prone to windshield leaks, due to the rakishness of their windshields?

    Thanks
