Hey there, can someone shoot me a link or a video on how to get the wing (vent) window out and taken apart enough to put new weatherstripping in? I have what seems like enough dismantled inside the door to get it out, but the main window is making it too tight to slide out (like you can on some other types of doors). Apparently I must take everything out just to get the vent window assembly out?

I can build motors in my sleep but can't take a damn door apart!

TTT? still can't seem to figure out why the vent assembly can't come out!

I had to take the window out to wrestle the vent out. It gives you a lot more wiggle room.

I now see you have a sedan. It may be different than a hardtop.

You have to take the window stops out,crank window down in to the door. Three or r screws on the front side door and remove wing vent adjuster. Lean the wing window towards the door opening and gently remove the assembly.

There a few you tube videos on the vent window rebuilt on similar GM vehicles.
I rebuilt mine using Metro weather stripping.

I think this is the part that I'm confused about. Anyone seen any videos on this part? I'm trying to not take EVERYTHING apart just to paint it, but starting to sound like that may be the easiest way to do it.

When I had my 65 painted- I took everything out of the doors.
If you do take everything out make sure you label the drivers and passengers side window mechanisms- I had a lot of fun until I realised I had the sides mixed up when I was putting my new glass in.

It's all in the 62 shop manual. Step by step.

Thanks for that! I was looking in my assembly manual but forgot that I have the complete shop manual!

Found it in my shop manual, not sure how I missed it before. I guess I was hoping for better pictures! Thanks guys.
