Re: My 56 build
Installed the windshield and rear glass this weekend. Hands are sore, but they’re in. Now that the glass is in it's starting to look like a truck! Working on the doors next.

Re: My 56 build
Looks really nice!! How much help did you have on the glass?? I am not looking forward to installing the glass and my front has the stainless trim. I am afraid of breaking the windshield installing it. Steve

Re: My 56 build
remember that the windshield doesn't come too far inside the rubber so it actually kinda sits against a ledge. otherwise the windshield would be pushed into the cab, worse case scenario. the rubber is kinda smaller than the glass if you think about it that way.

Re: My 56 build
i actually did the front first and had less issues than the back. that lock-strip thing makes it a good bit crazier

Re: My 56 build
Doors are installed. Now to wait for the seals to settle. First set took about 2 years. I bought another set for the final assembly. (A wire wheel ate the first set.)

Re: My 56 build
looks great Jason. I remember doing door seals on my 67 camaro. OMG what a mess. I tried so hard to be neat but got it on my gloves and apparently touched even surface possible with it.

Re: My 56 build
More progress. Most of the front end is assembled. Cold air intake and electrical box cover are done. Lights are all wired. Grill is in. Hood is almost ready for buffing. Next is to finish my interior wiring and install windows in the doors.

Re: My 56 build
The hardware came from classic auto and the glass came from balls rod and kustom. I upgraded the switches. They are from a 2000 impala(rockauto)
