Default Rear window seal replace by yourself

I was able to replace the rear window seal on my 41 coupe by myself.
Years of working by your self you learn to use what you have at hand.
Pictures are not loaded in order, but the first ones are the empty hole.
Then cleaned, sanded, and primed. then reattached headliner. then installed glass and seal
Hope this will help other ford barners.

Bruce

Works good
Lasts long time

That's a pretty good way to hold the glass up so you can walk around the back to start roping it in. I got my wife to push on the glass from the inside while I pulled the rope. All went well until she found her good sewing scissors in the car from the headliner installation!
