Windows

This is a compilation of sources and resources for windows--sealing, etc. Use putty tape to reseal between your window and the Scotty exterior. The below suggestions are resealing between the window frame and its glass.

• Replacement glass: by law, door windows are supposed to be safety glass. Regular windows do not have to be.

• Will need window measurements
• Frame is now white (originally milled aluminum)
• Can still get mitered (square) corners
• Will need the part number
  • located under the torque tube
  • about 32 digits long
• Will need to reuse the original garnish - new windows do not come with garnish

This from Dominic - 1967/68 windows:

I was able to locate a source for the replacement side window crank arm assemblies: http://www.technologylk.com/produce_view.aspx?&source_ID=nextag&product_ID=7409

This from Tom D. regarding 1969+ window seals:

I have taken all my windows for my '69 Hilander completely apart and re-done them. The seal channel has a crimp on each end. It appears to have been hit with a punch. Take a flat blade screwdriver and GENTLY spread and/or lift up the punched area. The seal should then slide out. With the seal out you can work the punched area to get the new seal in. You can re-punch if you want.

This from Dan M. reqarding 1969+ window seals:

I was told by somebody that the bulb seal that Vintage Trailer Supply sells will replaace the bottom seal on the post 1969 windows. This one:

It looks like the side seals are the same so the bulb seal may work there too, but I don't see anyway to install new side seals without taking the window out and taking the frame apart.

This from Ace G. regarding Dan's comments:

Yes I used this on a 68 front window. Here is the thing the round part is much bigger then the orig stuff. So it a smug fit closing. If you have the window frame all apart you must reseal the bottom center frame screws. I didn't and they leaked there.
