Those are NOT "Pop-out" 1/4 windows or do you mean the Semaphores ?? Those are aftermarket, 6v. All the rubber came from Wolfsburg West.

Sorry, I had edited my question. Did you have issues getting the 1/4 window seals to fit?
The car looks great. You must be getting excited to drive it being so close to the end.

I think I heard that it came from Lenny Copp at West Coast Classic Restorations.

Jody might chime in and say for sure. |

Thanks Tim !!! Yeah, that's him, Lenny Copp. I had to go looking myself but couldn't find it or remember which shop he had.
Seam's I'm having a problem with Joe not wanting to answer his phone when I call or returning my Emails and PM'S and it's not like I can just run up there every other weekend to check on things !!!

That rear seat looks like a 60-64 one, not for a 55. |
