The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk WHAT IN THE STOVEBOLT WORLD ARE THESE THINGS???

I'm sure most of us have taken something apart and after putting all the parts back together find a few still on the workbench.

That's where I find myself after 5 years and close to finishing the project.
Can anyone tell me what the things below are and where they go. Several I have an idea of but not an exact location etc.

1) Is the clip that covers the joint of the metal trim around the door panel.
2) Are the clips that are staked into the door window run channel that hold it in place, most of the guys throw them away and screw/pop rivet the channel in place.
3) I have no idea what those are. Might be for the inner windsheild garnish molding.
4) Is to small to see, your photo bucket won’t let me zoom in on the thumbnail. But it looks like the center strip for the headliner.
5) Same problem on this one to small to make out. Also hard to photograph or pick up details in black.
6) And same problem here also, might be the ring your wife lost a couple of years ago.

4) same guess as Denny headliner retainer?
5) beaded window seal ?

Crumy digital camara. I should know better than to take a pic at night. The flash ruins the shot. I'll try again today if it doesn't rain.

That #1 was like an itch you can't scratch. I knew I had seen it all my life in my old cars but couldn't remember where. I still don't know what joint on the door it covers. It should have been painted with the rest of the stuff.

#1 is, as Denny posted, the clip that covers the joint of the metal trim (frame) around the goes around the cardboard door panel

clips (one per door)

frames and clips (both sides)

cardboard door panels (with holes for door handle and window winder/handle)

#6 could possibly be a windshield wiper transmission external nut.

Ahaha... Tim, no wonder I couldn't find where it went. I haven't gotten to that part of the door. Thanks.

Close John but not a wiper part. It is a spring clip that has a wavy bend around it.

I'll take some more daytime pics of the unknowns and post later.

Yep, copied the picture, put it in Photoshop and blew it up so I could see it close up. Those are your beaded window seals/cats wisker/antirattle strips or what ever. http://www.classicparts.com/1951-54-Beaded-Window-Seals-pair/productinfo/03-513/

I know what they are, but just exactly where they go? I usually depend on LMC's catalog to show me where stuff goes, not having another AD handy to compare and having removed everything 5 years ago. However LMC shows the anti-rattle as a set and not in position where it goes. Is the curved end piece the part I see stapled to the inner door trim in some pictures? Then where does the straight strips go?

Now don't ya go gettin' all frustrated on us. Ask and ye shall recieve.
This is a '50 door so it's curved at both ends but it's the same as yours otherwise. check out the bottom of the page: http://www.pbase.com/dennygraham/doors&page=all
If ya got two that are straight, my guess would be that five years ago ya ordered two sets, one came pre-bent and the other they left up to you. So put the straight ones on the shelf for the next one.

Thanks Denny,

Finally I understand on the cat's whisker's. I just couldn't understand why I had two different types, and I would see pics of someone installing each one on the window molding. I guess I didn't take enough pics on the dismantle. I didn't have time today (a wedding and a graduation) to take some better pics on the other parts. mañana amigo!

Jim, when posting links to pics in Photobucket you can use the "Direct Link" URL to cut all of the extra BS the viewer has to look at when linking to the whole page. For example the picture of your window sweep would look like this: (click the link to see the difference)

Also if you use the Full Reply Screen and the link button (picture of a link of chain & globe) you can put a hyperlink in the post like this:
Window Sweep

Thanks Tiny,
I've only been on this forum for almost 5 years and cannot be expected to understand all its intricacies and shortcuts so soon in my experiences.

I always wondered how they got that long link into 3 or 4 letters.
Tap me on the head if I ever again forget to use the direct link.

THEY ARE THE CLIPS FOR THE METAL TRIMS FOR THE CARDBOARD DOOR PANELS.
ONE PER SIDE . I JUST DID MINE - AGAIN.
PS I ENDED UP USING ONE WHERE THEY JOIN AND ONE ON THE TOP JUST TO SAVE A LOT OF HEADACHE.

Here are 3 pics taken in the daylight. Quite a difference from the night shots.
These three are a mystery to me. The round springy things look like they may have been from my elec. wipers.

Is this the way to post pics Tiny?

#100

#2 #200

#3 [u][/u] #300

You have the hyperlink part down though.

#100 look like receptacles for Zues fasteners. I've never seen them on a Stovebolt.

#200 and #300 look similar.

The second picture shows a washer that I believe goes on the shift rod pivot on the bell housing.

The third pic shows the nutplates that go on the glove box liner.

from your "pics taken in daylight"
100/200/300 hold some weatherstrip someplace, can't quite place it, but maybe either cat whiskers or cowl-to-hood seal?

#2/3 [whatha3.jpg] are the tabs the go in the door to hold the felt window channel in place, should be 3 per side I think

the wavey washers in your other pics are tensioning washers that go where the wiper arms mount on the motor pegs

I should have read this earlier , I just siliconed the metal trim around the cardboard on the bottom as it wanted to keep popping off even after crimping the ends. Now I find out there is a clip for it.
