55.2-59 serious fit problems with Classic Industries Replacement Glass...any tips?

[AllenF]

Hi Folks,

Just wrapping up a sizeable restoration on a 56 big window. Bought all new glass and moldings from Classic Industries. The front chrome fits horribly, and the seal is very flimsy. I am certain it's properly seated, but it really fits like crap. LIke a "saddle on a sow" as they say. The back window is also too large to go into the seal.

I sort of expect aftermarket stuff to fit like crap, but this is ridiculous.

Of course I tossed my old glass so I can't compare. Has anyone encountered this? Thinking I am going to go buy a couple of used glasses if I can find them to check.

Any suggestions welcome.

Allen
