32 3 window door glass installation

[my2nd40]

Does anyone have a detailed instruction on how to install door glass in a 1932 three window coupe. I have searched thoroughly, and I can only find general instructions for early Fords. I have installed door glass in model A’s and 40 but this three window is kicking my tail. Thanks.

Put the regulator in the door, make sure mounting surface is toward the inside of the car, let it rest at the bottom of the door. Hold the glass vertical with the leading edge (front of car) up, slide the glass down through the opening then after its inside the door rotate it to horizontal. Lower it enough so that it can be inserted into the glass channel front and rear then push it up. Have extra hands hold it while the regulator arms are inserted into the metal channel. Raise or lower the regulator with glass to its mounting position, insert and tighten 6 screws to hold in position. Or it may be necessary to raise or lower just the regulator arms in order position the regulator in its mounting location.

Thanks can you tell me what the two screw attachments in the door post are for?

The two screws attach a long wedge shaped piece of wood. (I sent a private message)

Thanks again! I guess that is something I’ll have to make, unless brookville has them. The pictures are a big help.
