I'm running across various things that I simply don't know and can't find answers to, that I'm hoping folks here can help with.
It's a pretty crusty old race car, that got resurrected to some extent like 10 years ago I'd guess when everyone and their brother wanted that "gasser" look. It was kind of in a driving state, but what I'd consider quick+dirty, one step further than mockup. That was 2017, and I just recently got it running again, so now I'm turning my attention to some of the aesthetics.
I haven't been very diligent, but the mechanical stuff I've occasionally updated in this thread on the HAMB forum.
First issue\question. the back windows need felt channels and the whiskers. My front doors already have new stuff.
Thanks in advance, Scott.
- Is there anything special about these for the 2door wagon (like do they have some special clips?), or can any old length of same sized channel be cut and bent to fit?
- Do any of the companies sell a set for the rear windows on the 2dr wagon? I haven't been able to find a specific part\set.

To be clear, I'm not looking for glass. I'm just trying to sort out the window channel\felts for the rear quarter windows. This morning I was able to salvage what was left, and here's what I see. unfortunately, I still see nothing in the aftermarket that looks tailored to replace it directly. Even Danchuk's complete 2dr wagon kit is different. I guess I'll just buy channel and try to cleanup and reinstall my clips.
