    Does anyone have on hand, or know a source for, gl*** patterns for 32 Tudor door window, quarter window, and rear window? Thanks.

    Thanks. I'm familiar with Chris; have bought gl*** for three projects from him.

    Just looking for the patterns, the freight on gl*** is pretty stout. My little hometown shop can cut and edge finish it.

    Not much work to make your own patterns out of masonite, especially for the movable side and door windows as the new gl*** channels seem to be thicker and stock size gl*** can end up pretty tight.

    That's my plan if nothing shows up. I have the regulators, and the new front and rear channels showed up yesterday. Progress, although small, is progress

    32 Tudor door glass.JPG Here is a drawing I saved that was made by someone else so I can't vouch for its accuracy, but it would be a good place to start.

    I use a place called the Gl***house. He's done several cars and trucks for me. I always do tempered gl*** in the side and rear windows, no cracking.

    I can send you a drawing (traced around original one) back window gl*** if you still need it.
    Just PM me your mailing address and I will pop it of to you.

    Most old gl*** shops had patterns that rolled up and went under a table, they layed the sheet of gl*** on top and marked the outline. Owl Auto Parts here in town had that to use.
