Since I haven't been around a restored 70 Mach 1 lately, i'm hoping someone can help me out. Are there two trim pieces that go between the door windows or just one on the quarter window? My uncle has a 70 Mach 1 that he is trying to finish a restoration on. He has trim pieces on the quarter glass, but nothing on the door glass. There is a gap between the windows of about 1/2" and i'm wondering if there is supposed to be a trim piece there or if the windows need to be adjusted or something. Help me out! If I need trim pieces, where do I get them? Anybody have a picture I can look at, or could take one for me?

There is a chrome strip that is glued to the back of the door glass. It has a channel that a piece of rubber weatherstrip slides into. This is the weatherstrip that seals the door glass to the 1/4 glass. Unfortunatly they are getting really hard to find the channels any more. Ford was making it up to a few years ago, but it has since gone obsolete. The supply at most Mustang places has already dried up. Best bet is to keep an eye out on eBay for a pair. Also, expect to pay a few bucks for them. Hope this helped you out.------------------ 1970 Deluxe SportsRoof (63B),(2)46 Ford trucks, 47 Ford truck, 57 Ford Fairlane 500 4dr, '72 Olds Vista Cruiser(for sale), '88 Bronco II(for sale)...running out of room, selling some of my projects
