wing window ? s
What are my options for fixing my 67s. I've seen on here a few guys repair them. So what all is done to them. Also did some of the 67s originally have chrome. Are the 67s harder to repair than the 68 and up. oldno7

I think some of the '67's were the stainless clad but they are pretty hard to come by. Also the chrome handles were different on the '67 wing windows. To rebuild you basically disassemble them, clean & paint, new rubber seal and window channel. There are a couple of how to's on here about the process. LockDoc

Re: wing window ? s
the rib bits are the hard one to get done right If you don't have a machine rib bits the hand held one don't get it tight enough

Here is a how to video link. Not mine but should give you some good pointers for doing it yourself. Good luck, Tom

Re: wing window ? s
Thanks for video on the rib bits. Ive been putting off diving into installing new seals Ive had for months...looks doable enough.
