Doors / Window

Post by BILLY BLACKARROW »

Ok it's time to put my doors back together has anyone replaced the rubber at the bottom of the windows and if so what did you use or am I being a bit over the top/keep in mind that it won't be driven in the rain unless I am cautgh out--- you may notice that I have the right gear for the job IE BEER

Personally I'd replace it. Easy and cheap to do.

I got mine from Clark rubber. Can't remember the actual size 5 or 8mm?
Did the trick though.

I am in the clean /paint /protect stage -- but where do these 2 parts go I am sure they have to do with the windows but can't remember where
I am thinking they have to do with the back windows

And while I am on the subject is there a sequence to putting the glass back in the doors,

Thanks

I boughtbfrom spectrum channel setting rubber. You soak it in kero before you set the glass in. Somehow it holds into the channel better than normal rubber.

That's what I used on my '57 , you put it all together looseish , then soak it with Kero and the setting rubber swells up and stays that way.
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.
