How would be the best way to replace the flat glass in a 1959 Chevy pickup? The door glass and the vent glass need to be replaced. I have read about some using setting tape but have not found much information on the technique. One reply on a forum was to use motor oil on the setting tape and inserting the glass allowing the tape dry in the sun to swell and make a water tight seal?? Is this the prefer method or am I missing a step or better way? Thanks for all comments.
I have a copy of Custom Classic Truck magizine and you may fine the article in their February 2003 isuse, they discuss the complete glass and door refurnishing. If you cant find it I will be willing to send you my mag. I am done with it? Steve
buy a chevy truck manual for your truck its shows you how to do it ~ there are well worth the 30 bucks or so i have used mine time and time again
Pick up a copy of the book "How to Restore Your Chevrolet pickup." It has lots of great information about restoring trucks including replacing the glass. I love the book so much, I purchased an extra copy and donated it to my local library. Sledge
