Re: [AMC-list] glass run channel



Nope
If you find someone who does pass along the info.
Near as I can tell it is a do it yourself type project requiring you to form a straight piece into a curved piece.
I want to attempt this at some point, but have been unable to do it at this time.

I suspect that once you identify which channel to use, you may be able to form the curve by inserting a piece of plywood or plastic tightly into the channel to keep it open while forming the curve to match the glass.

The other option is to attempt to "reflock" the channel.
This is done by spraying a paint or adhesive onto the existing channel then shaking or dipping the powdered flocking over the wet paint.  Once dried it should appear as new, but, it may totally not work!

Search for flocking on the web, you should be able to pick up some info on trying that.

The vertical glass run channel on my 1964 rambler american is 3/8" wide by
1/2" deep, does anyone know who makes replacements?

Thanks Kelly GR
