hey guys sorry i havnt been here for a while, been busy with school and work and trying to work on this car. But i have made huge progress. finished the hood body work, driver and passenger fenders, and i've taken apart the front pass door all the way down... but i've hit a road block. my window tracks and stuff in that door are unusable. i need new ones, but i can't find any through Ames or eBay. OPGI will have a full-size Pontiac cataloge soon and i love OPGI... Anyone got any ideas?

anyways, heres my progress pics. i'm excited about my rust free fenders Smile

Looking good man!

Just find a junk yard door and use the guts. I'm sure all other 59/60 GM 4 door sedans will work also

thanks! yeah thats what i was thinking... problem is there isn't very many junk yards around here. i found a parts car on craigslist a few months ago, the guy just sold parts of the cars in his back yard, but i lost his number and i haven't heard from him since... so i dunno. yeah i know other 59/60 parts should be the same.. but i was very happy to find out that OPGI sells the back window and windshield for the 59/60 Cadillacs, which is the same for the Pontiac. made my day haha not that i need new ones

Just make sure it's the right windshield. Sedans, hardtops and converts are all different
