I took the whole assembly out of the door, laid it flat, and poured some gas on. The next day I wiggled it and it popped out. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,269 Bubba - Curmudgeon | | Bubba - Curmudgeon Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,269 | Gasoline does add a certain thrill to the exercise but I usually use paint thinner or mineral spirits with glass in the earlier trucks. I also don't know if these solvents work with the '59 vent glass.

There is enough good in the worst of us and enough bad in the best of us that it does not behoove any of us to criticize the rest of us.
