I am moving along on '50 3600 truck project and in the near future I will be installing the door glass (single pane, no vent window).

I have purchased the glass channel and have a decent idea of how the channel and the window regulator are installed but less clear about the rest of the story. I did replace the window rollers on the regulator.

Can someone provide a list of the parts required associated with the glass retention (I do have glass setting tape) and what goes inside and outside of the glass in the horizontal door opening the glass passes through?

I took the door glass out over 3 year ago and there was not much there that I remember but it was probably trash from 70+ years of aging.

I have the shop manual that covers removal and installation of the window but I did not see anything that discussed the related wiper seals (?) and such. I have watched a few U-Tube videos but again they seem to focus on the glass and/or the glass channel and not the rest of the story.

WICruiser - Is this one of the video's you've watched? It looks like it has the "rest of the story" you are looking for.
