I am thinking that it is a big job to replace the entire frame. Also, I don't really like the idea of sealing the window shut.

If you can find a donor frame, you can pull the glass, drill the rivets and install the new saddle.

Any number of makes and years work for those parts.
Give me ambiguity
or give me something else

I have the same scenario and have been trying to determine if I should try something like described above. Thanks. | | |
