This will be used on a Cab13 Chevy.

Brian,

Do you have the same for the cab rear window?

Hanno.

Are you referring to the the metal flex core, twin channel felt covered item the two sliding metal panels mount into? SPAE NAUR used to carry it in their antique auto section of their catalogue.

David,

That's what I am looking for, indeed.

I looked up their catalogue and found "Flexible Twin Channel C5" on this page: http://www.spaenaur.com/catalog/#K15 I this the item you refer to?

Thanks Hanno.

Very good information, with the pictures and information I can manufacture this parts for my C-15A.

After I send a pictures.

João,

I measured up the channel in my truck, and while it is approx. 1/2" high, the width less than an inch (approx. 7/8"), rather than the 1-7/64" (or 1.11") as per the picture in the catalog.

Now, the channel in my cab window is too narrow as the steel sliding plates can only be moved with much force (can't say they are "sliding", really).

But I do not know if the width of the SPAENAUR twin channel will fit the frame.

Who has tackled this job before and can help?!?

The above link has double channel that I think would work.

Hanno,

I will check tomorrow if have the double channel, I think use two single channel together.

My cover windows not have then I manufature other thickness and adjust. I will write about after.

Bob, good morning.

The cab sliding rear windows steel have a Rubber channel? Send me a picture about this, because I need manufacture and assemble, my truck not have this part in the past change for glass.

Hi JB

Teh rear window information you need would be with Phil Waterman..... my cab 12 are totally different..... and mine also are all glass. I think Phil refrabricated his rear windo BUT his roof is not finished yet and he drives it topless.

We may need a seperate trhead on the rear window frame and metal sliders for both cab 11/12 and cab 13....

Hanno can we slit this.... maybe something else was posted before that could be attached to thsi new thread...

Like hwy sheet metal and then glass... when did it change????

Hi All

Knew this question sounded familiar here are photos of one design of the sliding plates in the from a previous discussion of what they look like and what are the dimensions.
Pattern 13 Rear Cab Sliding Window

Page is slow loading because the picture files are large, pictures with ruler of the sliding plates are the third or forth item down under the heading Pattern 13 Rear Cab Sliding Window.

This is a page on my web site that I use to answer questions by giving people a link to specific photos.

Cheers Phil

Hanno or another moderator... Would it be possible as Bob suggests to split the posts about the rear windows from my restoration thread. I feel they will quickly get lost amongst my posts.

Joao, it would be best to ask your questions in their own threads. More people will probably see them and it will be easier to get a discussion going.

[Bob Carriere]

Thanks Phil

Have you done any work on your cab 12 rear window????

Cheers
