The Part# is easy to get, just look it up with the model# of the dryer, the problem is that it will be hard to find anyone that has one.
The other issue is that from your picture there is nothing wrong with the door seal on your dryer, if the door is not closing as well as you like the door latch is probably worn.
Also keep in mind that these Norge built dryers always leak [ hot steamy linty air ] every where, this is normal and if you fix the leak at the door seal the dryer will actually take longer to dry and use more power. |

Well that saves me a bunch of time! Thank you. That is exactly the problem- dries great, just get the hot air leaking from around the door. |

had a 1980 monkey ward dryer much like yours-door did leak air and lint as stated,also had to clear lint from the motor about every other year or motor would overheat and stop during drying cycle.Dryer lasted to 1998 when motor seized. |

These are the machines that were listed on Burlington Craigslist? I have tried to contact the seller twice and never got a reply, I thought it was a fake ad!
www.automaticwasher.org/cgi-bin/T... www.automaticwasher.org/cgi-bin/T... They were also advertised in Tennessee! www.automaticwasher.org/cgi-bin/T... |

Same ones, but the prior owner would not have listed in Tenn - that post looked fake. |
