Re: My Pro Street '56 GMC Pick'em Up

So I need to back track to explain how I screwed things up.

I did not know at the time when I sold my old wing/vent windows just like the one in the photo below that I would need some of the parts to make my new one piece windows work properly when I install them.

So to fix my problem I went over to my friends house Donnie with the '57 Chevy truck with the Jag suspension I have been posting photos of on my page.

I had to remove one of his vent windows to measure and take pictures of a part & make a card board template, I need to make for my truck. Then I went out and got some scrap metal and started the fab work and follow the directions posted by blackdiesel http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...=366078&page=4

WELL "stupid is as stupid does" when I went to my friends house to measure the vent window channel parts I failed to measure the actual channel opening and width. Of course when it came time to put everything together it should have been no surprise certain things didn't fit right and the window did not roll all the way up. I will show what I did to fix it.
