Re: 1966 A100 8in Chop
Id bet ?? u will actually need to move the wirpr arms & holes for them over to center more? than where they are @ present. Why not just use a 2 piece glass =spliced in the middle -no center bar-was one posted here in from view a long time done like that!! looked great too!

The whole back section had to be leaned in about an inch
The corners about the same. Some of the areas had to be bonded with epoxy because the
old body work in the corners was done with lead

Does anyone have info/ideas on one piece door glass?
I would like to get rid of the vent windows.
Also what are you using for door hinge pin replacements on the A100 ?
I already looked on the search but couldn't find much.
Thanks for any help
