need some help ,
I have 2 Shelby's in my shop, both are 66 fastback cars . customer suppled 2 sets of date coded glass for both cars, there from a supplier I have used a lot, the cars have original quarter panels and roof panels and the transition panel between the back glass,,,, The problem is it seems the aftermarket glass is about 3/8 inch wider than the original back glass. I did find a original back glass from a local mustang guy,,,, The supplier as i said I have used and have a relationship with and they order these back glass 70 pieces at a time,,, no one had a concern reported to them about install concerns, i had my son run the glass back to them as there located here in Minnesota , along with the original and they are agreement with me that the new glass is not the same size,,,,, both cars are very close to the same opening size and flanges,,,,,
so am I installing it wrong ?
Normal i start at the bottom of the glass and pull the cord over the lip, work my way up ,, i have installed probably 25 back glass , 67 68 69 70 71,,, this is the first 66 glass , so am i doing it wrong,
during the install , if I go up one side to the top and then go over to the other side , The glass and the rubber seal has climbed the flange and is against the quarter panel flange, were the trim clip ,clips into the pin ,,,, i have tryed this about 3 to 4 times and get the same result, any ideas,,,,
Should i start at the top were the glass is widest and go to the bottom?
appericate any help,,,, or recommendations of were to get another piece of glass,,,, Bob
