Technical Window channel mods

I am thinkin about removing my wing windows,stock window and rol up mechanism an run plexi with a strap to just pull window up.Where do I get the bendable channel to put in my door for the window to run in?Tis my 42 Stude... Also.I would like to find new winshield gasket and glass....

 

Maybe there are studebaker forums or clubs that can steer you. A note, plexi will scratch like hell after a few trips up and down

 

Tanks!

If you have a automotive glass shop in your town or a trim shop they generally have it in stock. HRP

 

I wonder if I can get some red glass cut....

 

Never seen red safety glass but I have seen red Lexan. HRP

 

They have red tint film too.

 

I guess whatever I run it will scratch when I roll down the windows....It sure would look grrreat with dark red windows....

 

I have tinted windows in my DD (not red) with 125k and they still look good. Not perfect any more but the tint has lasted thru a set of regulators and I smoke.

 

are those windows flat? if so red tempered glass would be an option. a local place did gray smoke windows for me, and said they could do red or blue too. it was suprisingle cheap

 

Yes! Thats the way I would prefer to do it! Safety glass?
