Bob,
Noticed no one has replied. I will be doing a complete door restoration in the winter including the vent window stuff. You need to look at the following posts using the "search" function: 64-65 GTO Tech: 65 Vent Windows: March 8, 2003 Quarter glass chrome: Sept. 2002 66-67 GTO Tech: 66 GTO vent windows: May 6, 2002 66 GTO vent window gaskets: Jan. 27, 2002 Body Shop Tech: Vent window weatherstrip: August 26, 2003 Vent window removal: Nov. 3, 2002 Let me know how you did with your vent windows. Suggestions would be appreciated before I tackle my door/window project. |

replacing the weather strip is realitvly easy, its getting the vent windows to close after you get the new weather strip in thats the hard part

Timbergrove,
The vent windows are too bad if have about 4 hands. The first one is will take the longest. Once you get the window out of the door note that the frame has to be taken apart to get the old off and the new on. I think the best way to put on the new is to use a putty knife to push the weather strip into the window frame. It is not an easy task and will take the better part of an hour to do it. Don't get too frustrated as you attempt to fasten the pieces of the frame together and the window keeps falling out of the upper part of the frame. You will get it all together after a couple of tries. You can email if you want a more detailed approach. Henry, Doing the door is quite simple and you will be amazed at how easy it goes on. Good luck http://www.geocities.com/jims64gto
