Good job on the patch panel. I'm finishing up my grandpa's car around the back window now, on the filler, sand, filler, sand stage lol, I use the rear window molding to get the contour just right, time consuming!

 

Another thing is I don't understand why the aftermarket hasn't made the rear window channel corners, they could sell the heck out of them, they would work on all 68-72 A-bodys that share our back window, and you could just cut and trim what you need.

Got the glue and paint sanded off the roof today. Also cut out some rust issues on the front right upper window channel and made a patch for it. Ran out of time so tomorrow I melt it in lol
