Yes I still rebuild them. What parts to you and where did you get them. I've found that some parts do not fit.

**D.PASSMORE** · 10-16-2017, 10:10 PM

Let me get the parts together, pictures and discuss. I'll PM with the details. Thanks

Gene Stephenson · 10-18-2017, 10:25 PM

Roger,

Since you restore these regularly, you must have a source for the chrome (stainless?) sleeves that cover the upper part of the window channels. Could you either sell me a pair or refer me?

Thanks,
Gene Stephenson

I have chrome with tinted at this time. I just received 5 pair from the chrome platter and will be restoring them over the next several weeks.

shenk10 · 10-24-2017, 03:41 PM

Okay, I'm interested in clear glass with chrome so I'll take a set when you get them put together.

How long would it take you to restore a pair of vent windows off my 1972 Chevy pickup?

From 3 to 4 weeks. The chrome plater takes 2 to 3 weeks this time of year.

greentruck · 11-27-2017, 02:14 PM

Just received and installed my set. They look and function great. I'm glad I went this route. Thank you!

**RogerKoop** · 02-10-2018, 08:06 PM

Just completed another 3 sets with tinted glass and 1 set with clear. 02/10/2018

I made a mistake and bought oer reproduction vent wing windows and they leak and have a ton of wind noise. Do your restored wing windows have alot of wind noise. I know these windows were never perfect but mine are terrible. Thanks

We're had great success rebuilding them so they do not leak air or whistle. We inspect our cores for issues at tear down and any questionable pieces are discarded. The weatherstripping we use is the best I could find which results any a perfect fit. Over the year I have not received any negative feedback, just ask the members that have purchased them. I really believe you would like a set that I restore.

ron lechman · 02-25-2018, 11:05 AM

Sounds like you offer an excellent product. I'll keep that in mind as I progress in my restoration.

TXgearhead67 · 03-03-2018, 01:45 PM

I got mine in yesterday and they look great! Thanks.

**D.PASSMORE** · 03-03-2018, 04:29 PM

What's the best way to ship a set that needs rebuilt?
