Re: removing parts from a 1600

[Richard Clough]

The chrome strips on the window sills can be 'pulled" off vertically. They have metal locking crimps under them that grip the door skin. Feed a thin screw driver under the strip and lift it upward. Ignore the scraping sound as they come off. Put the strip on by using a rubber mallet.    The rubber in the window channel is glued in - rip it all out. Replace using new window (bailey) channel from Clark Rubber.  Your car door will shut like a new one (no rattles).   I forget the sequence, but the windows are removed by unbolting window winding assembly. I think you also need to unbolt the window channel guide inside the door, but I cant remember if this step is necessary.    ----- Original Message ----- From: Richard Webb To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, 28 January 2001 11:54 AM Subject: removing parts from a 1600 I've started stripping down my 1600 ready to be painted.   I just have a few quick question on how to do things, maybe you guys know some special tricks. The things I have to do are -   - get the crome strips off the window sils (outside) - rubbers out the windows - that little window behind the passangers windable window (no idea how to get that out) - the windows out the doors (although thats probably in the gregorys haven't checked yet)   I think thats all for now.   I know everyone does it but I'll have to take some pictures of my progress.   thanx for you help in advance,   Rich   BTW - If I take the headlining out, do I have to get a new one or can I put the old one back in. Also do the windows have to be in or out when the headlining goes back in? --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
