Hello!
I've attached 2 pics from my '65 Fury III. I bought the car as a 95% finished project. I'm working on putting the interior back in, and part of that project is making sure that everything in the doors, i.e. glass, locks, etc, works.
1st issue:
I pulled the pass side door glass to replace the channel lining in the channel that holds the rear of the glass (towards the back of the car), and noticed that the top half of the steel channel trim that was on the front edge of the glass had come loose. The glass now "rocks" in the door because of the loose trim, so I have to reattach it.
How do I do it? I was going to use contact cement, which seems to hold everything, but I'd like to check if there's another secret out there of which I'm not aware.
2nd issue:
I got the car with the proverbial "box 'o parts", misc unidentified fasteners, metal pieces, etc, but was lucky enough to find the lock tumblers for both doors. Unfortunately, the keys that came with the car, the ones that work in the ignition and the trunk, DO NOT work in those lock tumblers. I've cleaned them up, lubed them, and tried to wiggle the key in the lock to get it to move, but no dice.
Could the tumblers/internals be stuck from lack of use? If so, what's the best way to get them free?
How are the tumblers mounted into the doors? Is there a sliding clip like Chevy uses, or something more elaborate? I don't even know what to look for...
Thanks...
Chris
