48Dodger Posted January 10, 2010 Report Share Posted January 10, 2010 Can you put it on a faster "shutter" speed? You know, the icon of a man in motion? I'm thinking you have a night setting going there, to give it so much wiggle. 48D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBNeal Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 The shop manual refers to getting the door straightened out with a strategically placed block of wood and manual force...I straightened the doors on the '49 by lowerin' my shoulder and tee'n off, with a toobafor placed strategically between the door & cab...my shoulder was sore for a few days, but those doors are nice & true now.

ssdodge51 Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Try Vintage Glass in Georgia. I bought my 37 Ford Glass from them and he was reasonable. He said they had the patterns for a Dodge Truck. http://www.vintageglass.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John-T-53 Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 Since we're dealing with flat glass here, I would consult a local automotive glass shop. If you have the originals, take them down there and have duplicates cut. Probably would be a lot cheaper than catalog ordering, and keeps your money local. I plan to do this when I replace the windshield. I want to get tempered glass instead of AS2 for the doors and wing vents, but not sure if tempered glass can be cut to shape in the shop.
