[Healeys] Door glass

[Mitch Simmons]

Hello Fred

Did you buy the rubber from Moss? If so...won’t work
I think I bought the rubber glazing strip from Restoration Specialties ...they come in different thicknesses....you might get lucky and go to a local window shop and buy some.....once you get the proper size it’s a piece of cake

The glass rattles around in the channel without the rubber so I know the channel is the right size.  I think the rubber is intended to provide a tight fit into the channel.  However, with the rubber in place and with soap and water, the glass simply will not go in.
