' coupe door glass problems craig jewett a while back as i was rolling down the passenger side window the glass came out of the sash piece at the time i was able to coax it back in but now it keeps coming out every time the window is rolled down the glass would not go back all the way into the slot in the sash piece i removed the sash door panel and vapor barrier off first of course and replaced the grip strip from zip now there is no way i can even get the the glass to start to go into the sash slot it looks like i'll have to remove the glass completely from the door and install the sash on the bench somewhere along the line the upper regulator channel had also moved back and damaged the rear felt strip how is this felt top and rear section replaced the original chassis overhaul manual is not much use under the side glass removal section it tells you to remove the vent window assembly first under the vent window section it says to remove the side glass first now i'm really confused can anyone out there shed some light as to how i can get the sash bar and grip strip secured to the glass without removing it from the door also what is the secret to removing the window glass from the door thanks in advance

Re: '67 Coupe Door Glass Problems
re ' coupe door glass problems ed jennings i had this same problem with my coupe a year or so ago i didn't have the necessary materials to remount the glass in the channel so i took it to a local auto glass shop min and later it was fixed and i was on my way the vent window must be removed first there are a couple of screws under the weatherstripping that have to come out you may not have found these once the vent window and the front rrack are out of the way the glass and the lower channel come out very easily there has been an article in corvette fever or vette in the past months on this subject i can't tell you which issue but if you have a library of such things you might look -
