Looks very tedious. Your patience is a lot great than mine. Nice work.

[@MidYearMitch]

Thank you I appreciate it. I forget how much patience I have for these things. I’m very determined to finish a task so I do whatever I need to do to get it done. I actually really enjoyed putting the window in. I want to do more of them.

Nice work Mitch. I'm gonna tackle that job tomorrow. You make it look pretty simple. Thanks

[@MidYearMitch]

Thank you! Honestly it wasn’t bad. The hardest thing was getting the rubber on the glass. Other than that it was straight forward. Best of luck! Hope it goes smoothly.

@@MidYearMitch I did opt for the longer clips from Zip products. They are 1/32 of an inch longer and are supposed to make the trim install easier without damage.....we'll see today. Thanks again

I really miss seeing your dad's roadster parked in the garage. That always made your videos more enticing

[@MidYearMitch]

Lance Vette I agree. It’s in storage right now and it’s hanging out with it’s twin but it’s painted black. It’ll be back once the season changes.

I'm in the middle of restoring a Riverside Red 63 as well, and found your video very helpful in confirming a few steps, as well as providing some alternate ways of addressing the rear window install. If you have a video detailing the replacing of the door glass, I would greatly appreciate a look for any tricks you may have. Is there anything you're having difficulty with? I'd be happy to help if I can.

[@MidYearMitch]

rm087 I appreciate it! Good luck with your project. I had a little video where I put the door glass in. There was another video online that had how to do the window install. I have a video that explains some of my steps. Coupes are a bit tricky.
