The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Interiors 1955 1st series window channels

i had windows installed in my 1955 1st. all is well but the inside driver side window channel ( in the door on the latch side) the shop made one up but it is still not right. i need to help it stay straight on the way up as i crank it up. any help finding one that works? thank you . Brian

Is this the part that you need?

If so, reproductions are available. Here are two: American Classic Truck Parts item #DGC-51L "Rear window channel", and The Truck Shop item #51-05803 "Lower rear door edge glass guide."

I bought one for my '54 3100 from American Classic. Perfect fit. Make sure that you use the correct size screw through the door into the guide. I used one too large and broke off the speed-nut type thread but was able to rig it to work.

FYI - I bought window kit #51-05705 from The Truck Shop (upper felt, inner wipes, outer wipes, staples, door division bars) and was very pleased with the fit. I ordered the glass guide but it was out of stock, so I bought from Classic.

You probably need a shop manual or a truck assembly manual.
