front windows
front windows
evening all ater taking my door cards off to see what the problem was with the window dropping on one side when trying to open it (drivers door)I found that one of the metal cross members that lift the glass was bent .its the two that look like scissors .to straighten this I will have to remove the whole mech but is there any easy way to remove the glass does it stay in the metal Chanel it seems to be stuck in with some kind of butty

Hi Dex,
If it’s the same as my ‘37 saloon, I seem to recall that the metal part that the mechanism wheels run in remains stuck to the glass and that the mechanism itself can be removed, leaving the glass in situ. Obviously you will need to hold the glass up when you do this to prevent it dropping. I’d suggest strong adhesive tape on the glass and onto the frame.
Hope that helps.

Re: front windows
Bad luck with the parts numbers - not only do all models (ie 10/12, 14 ,16 or 20) have different number for complete gearboxes, each year of all models has different numbers! (Apart from 1940 16 and 20 or 1947 14 and 16 ) You would have to go through the separate components to find which are the same............
