Repairing a damaged hinge post on a vent window

[Garry E.]

Can anyone recommend someone (or a company) that can repair the hinge post on a vent window on my '64 roadster.....? Many years ago, someone broke into the car through the vent window, bending the soldered hinge and post.... now the vent window doesn't close properly..... any suggestions would be appreciated...........

Paragon has offered a repair service for that issue for many years.

Garry,
Check out Charlie Santorelli at Sting Ray Sity. I believe he advertises in the Driveline.
He restored both my 67 roadster vent window frames and did a great job.
