Tonight I shortened the door window frames 4"......so now all 1/4 glass frames, door glass frames and window wing frames are all fully functional. Next is the inside front window garnish.
The smallest of parts can amount to alot. I have to personally thank Flat Top Bob with Owens Salvage for being part of this car. Bob came through with an unobtainium part which is the column filler that goes above the steering column and is for a 51 Ford automatic only car. Some of the parts for era correct builds that you try to search for and find can give you ulsers and I will again thank so many HAMB folks for helping me and they know who they are. Also thanks guys for the great positive comments.
Great reference photo showing how low the car is. The 55 F100 is stock height and the Victorias roof comes up to about the top of the F100 hood.
