1946 Rear Window Install

[3quarter32]

Going to install rear window shortly. I wanted to be sure where to start. I assume with the glass in the rubber seal, the bottom portion is where to begin. Where would be the starting point of the string? Thinking it would be crossed at the bottom, and work towards the sides and top. I know a inside helper is surely a must.
Suggestions more that welcome, Thanks

Log onto Van Pelt Sales, click on "Parts Drawings, then to Body Pictures and it will give you complete instructions with pictures.

The instructions on Van Pelt, is it the same procedure if the rear glass has the stainless trim mounted in the rubber?

Yes, the instructions cover that also.

Van Pelts shows starting at the top, just the opposite of what I would have tried. Figures.. Sure glad I asked first.

Thanks

Just did my 39 Tudor and it was not as hard as I thought. I started from bottom as it is easier to push glass down than up. There is a utube video which would be helpful to watch.
