Re: Need Parts please!

@ptc and @idbeast

I bought the 10m96 channel from restoration specialties also for my 58 conversion over here in New Zealand. Now that I have started doing the modifications I understand what you are referring to in regards to the front window channel.

I will attach a picture for anyone else in the future.

As you can see from my pic the rear channel (which if you move back like grimms and blackdiesel did) is wide enough to accept the 10m96 however the front 1/4 channel is to narrow and won't accept it

unless someone knows of a viable, cheap and easily sourcable replacement the only way I see this front channel working is if you took it from a U channel, cut one side off making an L channel section and urethaned the 10m96 onto it.....

I plan on doing a power window kit but that will come over in my big parts order once the bulk of the small work is done.
