Bingster Posted February 19, 2017 Report Posted February 19, 2017 On the rear windows of my 1947 De Soto S-11, there is a metal channel that is covered in a cloth fabric that goes around the perimeter of the roll-up window glass. I looked at the Restoration Specialties catalog and didn't find anything like that, unless I missed something. I don't know what kind of a glass run channel I could by that would make the radius on each upper corner. I assume that there might be a cloth that I can use to cover the metal frame of the channel, which has a little tab that locks into a slot at the top of the window frame. I don't know if this part is the same on other Mopar cars of the same year.. Quote
DonaldSmith Posted February 19, 2017 Report Posted February 19, 2017 Back in 21004, I did my window weather strips with stuff from Restorations Specialties. Call them up and ask them what to use. Glass run channels: U-shaped, with felt on the inner faces. Window channel clips at the top and sides hold them in place. Belt strips, outer and inner, at the slot in the door. I used reallly, really small screws to secure them. Quote
