Title: Wing window assembly
Post by: 57chero on 2016-03-28 19:14
Does anybody know if the wing window assembly is the same for a Fairlane 500 2dr. hardtop and a Sunliner convertible.

Just about every model 57 uses a different vent assembly.

500 ht, convert and retract will fit but....the top of the frame has an indent to make room for the flipper on the hard top, the convert and the retract have no indent.

I have put 2dr hrt doors on 2 different retracts and the vent frames were not even close to fitting
the windshield posts.

The MPC lists 3 different numbers for the frames, retract,convert and 2 & 4dr hardtops.

Goodluck,

Ron.
