    C1 Side window adjustment

    I am trying to adjust the side glass on my 57 so that the glass fits the top. I have top fitted and it looks to be adjusted correctly (with help from Clint Coffman of the phone). Now I'm trying to get my side glass adjusted.

    The front part of the glass seems to come up too high, but the rear is too low. I can't even get the back to come up enough to hit the rear stop at the top of the door. I suspect that I need to adjust the lower guide assembly but I haven't been able to get the results I'm looking for by moving it around.

    Is there another place I should be looking to make adjustments? I'll try anything at this point.

    Comments or suggestions would be much appreciated.

    Re: C1 Side window adjustment

    hi, simplest attempt is to try the horizontal weather strip on hardtop, it may not be seated correctly, too much sealant gum gum, etc.... also headder gasket or bar on top may not be correct or headder locks may be clamped too tight.....These would be the best places to start being not as complicated as internal & external door adjustments. I have heard of some "pain in the assp" things that may involve you with the changing of many gaps & clearances with door post along with windshield post aligments as well as door gap to body fits. If car was damaged sometime in past with replaced front end the door post alignments could be off because of out of speck alignments from past bodywork. Sure someone else will add to your question, good luck.
