and how do I get the back quarter trim off? I cant find it in the book...

 

[Wollfen]

i was pulling the edges off today, and this is the piece that is around the side of the rear window. there is no weatherstriping there. just glass and pookey.
the FSM has a double negative:

"identification of a polysulfide adhesive sealed rear window can be made by noting if rubber weatherstrip is visible between outer mouldings and glass. If not, the following procedures should be performed as specified to assure a proper and watertight installation."
is this that?

That looks like a rubber seal to me.

Are you talking about the L shaped chrome piece in the rear glass, or the chrome trim that's on top of the rear quarter?

 

[saylor]

the quarter trim

 

[68plymouth383]

You need to roll down the back window to access the screws. There's Phillips head screws that hold it on Take all them out. The trim will slide right off.

kick *** broseph I appreciate it. I could not find a picture of it in the book.

we flooded out today but it may clear up later on so I may get out there sometime today.

at least its raining.

 

[68plymouth383]

Yeah we've been getting bucket loads of rain these last few weeks. Now the mosquitoes are bad....

 

[saylor]

im gonna sand this all down, and probably put por15 silver over the whole top. right now im thinking about popping the front and rear glass out and treating the window channels too.

 

[68plymouth383]

If you take the windshield out you'll need a new gasket. The back window is glued in.

 

[saylor]

do you know what kind of pookey I need for the rear window?

 

[68plymouth383]

No I sure don't. You might ask a glass shop.

 

[saylor]

ok 3m has urethane pookey to glue the window in. it is for sure glued in. I got down to the glass edge today. its crunchy:

 

[saylor]

loosening the trim with toothpicks. just a tip from your boy saylor:

 

[commando1]

You're going to reseal the glass. Am I understanding that correctly?

 

[saylor]

this little shim thing was in the bottom passenger side corner of the rear window / trim edge -

?


anyone know whats this?

 

[saylor]

its the roof commando. the roof has to get worked on. but every time I peel something back, there is more

im gonna be left with a pile of rust, some white paint, and a headlamp.

 

[commando1]

Looks like the clip for the trim.

 

[saylor]

im gonna work the roof metal over as best as I can, and probably use por15 patch or por 15 epoxy to build up where this P.O.S riveting job is. im thinking about popping the rivets, but im scared of whats under there.

 

[saylor]

whats under my rear window trim?

looks like a damn squirrel nest under there

 

[saylor]

the last bits are the quarter window trims. Jason I rolled the window down and could not locate any screws/nuts/fasteners.

do the interior side panels have to come out to get to them?
