Good Evening! Trying to figure out what years are compatible for the front door vent window frames. My car is a 1969 B-body and I have found some vent frames off a 1966 and 1967. They look the same in pictures buy want to make sure before I buy.

Thakns,
Carl

not the same size unless your '69 is a convertible (& pivot looks different)

What!? How did I not see that there? That is great news. I know Mike Ross from BE&A was workiing on making these available too, but that project seemed to drift off. Any idea on pricing for these kits yet Tony?

Oh
I am with Dave on this, How did I miss them??
I talked to Mike at BE&A and the reason he stopped his deal was the pricing was way to much for him to be able to sell them.
I was bummed but I understood because if they are too much nobody will buy them.
Tony do you have any photos you can post of what you had at the Nats??
Also Cost ????
Thanks Tony, David

Hi
Thanks for your interest

We felt it was a much needed and long overdue item

We have a target retail price of $500 for a complete right and left "kit", it may vary just a little dependent upon packaging and transport

I'm anxiously waiting for them too

Thanks again
Tony

No they arent

But the 66-7 b-body hardtop frames are the same for 66-70 B-body convertibles

After the nationals we had time to install it and approve it

Here is a picture of it installed in a car (1970 road runner)

The chrome isn't the final chrome, which will be triple plated, and will look better.

Thanks for your interest
Tony

Much needed , long overdue part , thanks Tony.

A friend had his rechromed , the shop that did it I think grinds the chrome? It lost the character line and looks like bleep.

That's why I decided to find decent used ones instead of attempting to have mine replated, but they aren't perfect. Good job Tony!

Tony,

Will the channels already be riveted to the chrome posts?

Thanks
Carl

Hi

thanks for your inquiry

we wont be supplying the stainless door glass channels,
you would reuse your old ones and rivet them to the new chrome frames that we are making

we are making a kit that consists of 10 pieces,
5 pieces per side:
-the chrome vent post
-the chrome vent glass channel
-the chrome vent glass lock lever
-the 2 piece inner and outer vent glass pivot

the stainless glass channel doesn't rust or pitt because it is stainless, so youll need to have your original vent glass post assembly to assemble our new parts on

thanks
Tony

I am also like Dave as I am getting real close to installing the door glass and vent window frames in my A12 RR. I would like better chrome then what I have so your timing is Great. Hopefully it won't be a couple months before they are out.
Thanks Tony,
David
