This week After we have fitted the front roof section & rear clip, we take them off and glass them from the back side. 
While the rear clip is off we had the glass guy install the new rear window. Then we can put the body back on & start glassing, filling & sanding. 
After sanding & primer in a couple places.....

Looking good as always. Question(s):
Hey Archie, did you find any spare parts that we were talking about?
What is the height from the bottom of the rear window to the top of it? (not from the bottom glass to to the rear clip).
What is the distant from the rear window to the trunk?
Will I have a hard time removing the rear clip for modifications?
I notice that you'd used a brace on the sail panel area. Is this a "improvment" vs the old way?

You need to call me on that, We don't have a rear clip & I don't recall what else we were looking for.

Dunno, I'll have to measure that. Do you want the window glass or the opening the window goes in?

|
|
Donno what you want there, it's in the same place as the window used to be located.

You'll have to remove the 1/4 windows, then it'll come off like stock (see the answer to the next question).

Been using that on the last 4 or 5 cars at least. It keeps the rear clip from distorting while we are handling it. This is a pic from Chop Top #13 While we were glassing it from the inside....... 
Don't forget to call me on Tuesday when you start getting within an hour or 2 of LV. Archie

Hey Archie do you do anything with the windshield wipers since the windshield is angled lower?
