Re: 1965 Ford Mustang

This one pic represents a lot of pain in the ass greasy work.

On these cars, even with good rollers on the window frame (which from what I can tell, no one sells? and they're riveted on anyway) the quarter window will rock back and forth a bit. But, you can adjust them! Mine was adjusted so that it fell "forward" a bit and when I had the window up on the DS door the top back or the door frame would hit the top of the quarter window frame when I opened/closed the door.

I decided since I had it all apart (this happens so much!) that I would take the quarter regulator out, grease it and all the tracks up, and put two new rollers (these ones you can replace) on the regulator arms. It wasn't as bad as it sounds but took at least an hour to do, not counting the hour of video footage I watched on how to do it So the door now opens and closes nice!

I got all the quarter trim back on the driver's side and the 3 point permanently mounted finally on that side. It also got new dark blue pinch trim (whatever it's called) and all the parts cleaned up. I started Dynamatting the trunk so I get can all the crap back in and out of my garage.
