Window alignment

[elpaso69 10]

Hey, i'm brand new to the forums here, and i have to say they are very helpful. i did have one question though. i have been trying to align my driver side window on my 69 coupe for the better part of the last 3 years ever since my mom shattered it by slamming the door after taking it out for a spin. i got the new glass and it is from a 69 coupe but i can't seem to get the spacing and angle right. any tips on this subject would be awesome. i just recently moved to el paso, tx and i need to get the interior sealed to keep all of the sand out and i would also like to be able to keep people from so easily unlocking my door.

 

thanks

mike

i would love to hear the response to this question because ive got the same problem but with the passenger side. The window has two guides in the door which can both be adjusted to change the angle of the glass. It seems they can only be adjusted from the bottom but i think u can do it to the top, if u use like washers or shims.

LOL... oh the good old days. In high school I had a 65 coupe. I had a killer old school Alpine deck in it. I used the leave a cassette tape in it but ejected, cleverly disguising the deck and ALWAYS left the car unlocked. I figured I'd rather have someone open the door and steal something than scratch the paint or hack the car up getting in... luckily neither ever happened. Sadly I sold the car after college.

Your all scareing me !! I am just about to try and line up my windows. They are ALL screwed up...all 4. The last person that 'fixed' them jammed an ice scrapper in between the regulator and the 1/4 panel :scared: to hold it in place !!!

Previous owner syndrome strikes again! Any Stanger worth his salt knows you are supposed to use a broken yard stick. If only more folks owned a shop manual.:no:
