1934 Ford 5W Rear Window assembly

The only foam rubber involved is at the top with a slight upside down U shape that the top edge of the glass fits into when the window is closed. It is the same thing as is used at the top of the door glass (and quarter windows in sedans) and readily available as an accurate reproduction in various lengths. It was originally glued in place.
 
Thanks David! Appreciate the quick response.

Is there anything along the bottom between the glass and body window frame?
 
no, water runs down into the drain pan, no lip on the rubber that the glass sets in. dont be a dumb bell like me and set the side channels too close to the wood frame so the garnish molding wont seat against the wood. had to do it twice at my house

I used 3/4" thick wood strips between the metal window surround and the wood frame so the window channel would fit snug between both. Then removed the strips once the wood was tacked to the window metal surround. The top of the window opening has a sponge rubber seal and the two sides have the felt channel. To hold the felt channel in place, lower on the two sides are metal channels. The metal channels are tacked to the wood and the felt channel go through them.

Are the 2 metal channels that help to hold the felt channels in place an original item or are they an aftermarket upgrade? I can’t seem to locate these anywhere. New or used. Thanks
