[Tigers] quarter window replacement help request

If you have screws in the frames check that they don't hit the glass.  A lot 
I've seen with plex have the screws going against the plex. A NO NO with  
glass. Grind them down or get shorter ones.

Hi  Jim,
I replaced mine with Tom Hall/STOA glass in the 1975-1979
timeframe  but they still look great...
IIRC, all I did was drill out the old rivets,  change the glass and
then re-pop-rivet it.  I just went out and looked  at them, I see
I could not do the underside one closest the rear  corner.
Only one rivet there but I have never had a problem and you
have  to look underneath to see it ;-)

Subject: [Tigers] quarter window replacement  help request

Hello,

This was buried in a letter to the list  serve I wrote end of last week.  
Didn't hear from anyone so I'll try  again.


QUESTION:   We are replacing the hardtop quarter  windows  with the glass 
ones 
from the
fellow in CA. The task of  removing the old and  reassembly seems a bit 
daunting.  Those  rivets.  If anyone has  done this before and can contribute
a  process, I would be much in your  debt.

Best regards,
