I envy you Mr.Steve, God has gifted you to do what you do.

Good job mate. You sure don't skip on even the smallest details.

Man that red truck was so nice...what a beauty!!

Well done Steve. Come on people, hit that like button!

[@henrytupper6959]

That was very helpful even though I am working on a 67 G10 van. Thought the vent came out last, so I learned something before starting. Thanks.

It makes my day when you put another video on. I’m closer than ever to getting started on my project. Very soon I’ll be getting into it and your videos are the reason. Thanks for all the great work you do.

Hey Gibby. Just referring back to this particular video. Just dissembled a vent window assembly for my 61. I had to replace both doors when I had bodywork and paintwork done. The body shop guy reused the two vent window assemblies outta of my old doors. Problem with that is he didn't bolt down the lower bracket on the division bar inside the door. I had this annoying rattle when driving the down the road. So further exploring I was beginning to understand why the dude didn't fasten down the lower brackets?! The windows didn't roll down all the way??!! I was kinda mad. So I'm rebuilding the vent assembly that come out of the replacement door. For what ever reason the ones currently in there are either bent or distorted somehow??!! I don't know. I'm will see if my plan works?! Lol!! Thanks for the detailed videos sir it helps alot!

I’m new to the channel, but Wow! I’m impressed sir. I love the videos do for your red truck and the blue one. My trucks nowhere near yours but it’s my first one and it’s my daily driver. Thanks for all the information and you make it look so easy. Wish you all the best.

[@davemiller6893]

Hi from the UK. I've just discovered your channel and what a find. It is a pleasure to watch you work and the quality of your camera work is very good. Also I have to say, seeing you work on this 50 year old truck is a testament to American automotive engineering, it sure does last. Cheers and thanks.

Dave Miller thanks

Whenever I work with glass and rubber contact, I always spray a little silicone dash cleaner on the rubber and that stops it gripping on the glass and makes any movement all smooth and free. Great job !

[@jeffroberts1834]

Steve, where did you get your rivet kit? I've got a 66 but the rivets they sent me are absolutely not long enough. Mine came from LMC. I've probably watched this video 5 or 6 times to make sure I wasn't missing something. I'm guessing you had no problems like that.

[@DoubleRRestorations]

That's a nice job. I'm sure that will help alot of people building these trucks. See ya on the next one.

[@carguy_6618]

I love your truck. when u were starting to grind the window track down, I noticed a Johnny cash book in the back. he is my favorite artist.

[@Gibson63.]

Yes that’s a box of CDs, I listen to Johnny Cash growing up Learning to play the guitar to his music

[@EngTecher]

Nice red truck! I like your other one in the garage too. The ranch truck I have is a 1963 Chevrolet C10 fleetside pick up. I plan on getting it on the road. I can see what I need to do and where I can get some motivation to get it done. I have another 1957 Chevrolet stepside 1/2 ton truck. I sat through four of your videos, and its late tonight. But I am in the garage cleaning up before I start getting my 57, going through it to get it done by summer 2019.

if you were to replace the glass itself(my glass is missing from the frame), do you know if the glass takes some kind of insulating rubber between the glass and channel it sits in? I cannot find a place that sells it if it does exist

Matt R Yes my kit from classic parts came with some kind of sticky felt that goes between the glass and channel to hold it in

Did the window bottom support have any adhesive or is it held in by pressure?

If your talking about the windows you do need them it seals the glass and keeps the it from moving side to side or you can remove it then get a different type of deal for the upper Chanel

There is a short track installed on the inner part of the door. The third wheel goes in there. It's best to fit the wheel into the track before attaching the four screws that hold the regulator to the door.

[@Ward1228]

Can I pick your brain a bit? I have a 62 and I’m currently doing the same thing. A few questions I have are when ordering the felt. There’s with or without metal frame doors, what’s the difference there? Also I ordered some felt already but it didn’t come with the felt to insert into the wing window section. It just came as one fairly long piece. I am starting with nothing to really go off of and I don’t consider myself to be a mechanic haha. Im just trying to put together something someone ripped apart years ago and left it to sit. Thanks for your help and time. If you have part numbers that would be great. My doors are identical to yours.

[@Gibson63.]

GagePbnBae When you order this kit I believe you have to get with or without door trim because there’s is a difference in the thickness, the kit I ordered from (Classic parts)came with a long strip I had to cut also if I remember well
