    IMG_1153.JPG Since Mac's lists the same rubber seal (A19003R) for both the quarter and rear windows, it would be reasonable to assume that it mounts from the inside with it held in by the garnish moulding. That is what I did. IMG_1153.JPG

    Did you put sealer between the rubber and the body? Is your glass rounded on the corners or squared? Have a phto from the outside looking in? Thank in advance!

    The glass has square corners. Makes putting the rubber seal on easier. Haven't put any sealer on since I'm not done yet. Haven't driven in the rain, just a few times around the block.

    I do. I ordered the glass with square corners. I couldn't find a good way to roll the rubber around a radius. Im hoping that my rear panel will hold the glass tight enough that it won't leak much so I don't have to seal it. that way I can remove it if i want to . There are still a lot of screws to go around the window.

    Well after reading through 76 pages of good info and a lot of building going on I will add my post . In 1971 MSRA donated a 1924 T C -cab at the NSRA NATIONALS at Memphis Tn. as a give away . In 1978 I bought the C cab ,drove it about one year and decided to park it with the thought that years later it would be a part of street rod history. Over time there was two attempts to steal it and a separation that involved a court order to get back what was left. I decided to disassemble and store in more than one location and now the time has come to do a complete rebuild . When I purchased the T the owner had made a few changes so I am looking for some stories, information , pics. , details etc. my intentions is to restore to the original appearance in 1971. I have found a few items and hopefully be ready to start later this year. THANKS.

    A better question might be what’s that round thing on the back of the body. :confused:

    Looks out of place with all the square windows.

    Not sure how i missed this thing. I really like the black bumpers and the black shell with the gold. And those wheels! WOW! The car has almost a modern flare but still looks classy! Very impressive taste!

    Check swing action, assuming it's like any other cross steer box it will swing the wrong direction the way you have it

    You mean this one...
    Not what I like, he is too rough and ready and I don't believe it represents what we are about.
    Sure made me feel good about my quality of work compared to his...

    I agree with you guys, not entirely up to snuff, but I didn't want to say bad things about the guy. He really tries to get something done.
