I'm looking for best source for new window channels. What all is involved in installing new ones? I want to install new glass in drivers side of my 39 pickup. I would appreciate any and all suggestions regarding source of materials.
Thanks
Randy
 
I think that most of the parts dealers sell the channel kits from one source and that is Vintique. I think Restoration Specialties also sell some window channel items, but I don't think they sell in kits. Maybe someone else may have better info on them.
 
I got mine from drake. I put them in last spring, so far so good. I bought extra screws and clips. I found it to be a straightforward task. Pay attention to the order of assembly and orienting the glass before you drop it through the slot. I put the front edge in first which allows the tapered edge to rotate into the new channel. I also put in the wiper felts last after everything else was done.
