Thanks for the offer JJ know anyone that rebuilds / rechromes wing windows ?
Got one price of 800.00 which seems silly... I was going to take them apart and use a local chrome place but can't find any how-to info on disassemble the windows

Sometimes I feel like it has taken me far too long to complete my Camaro project. It's been 10+ years. Then I spend 4 hrs on something like this and I feel better. It would be easy to just order aftermarket crap that is nowhere near the quality. Take the easy way out, just through money at it and get done sooner... but where is the satisfaction in that?
PS removing tempered glass that has been in place for 50 years without breaking the glass or bending the very fragile frame it's in is time consuming and really difficult... but what worth doing is easy...

Good job! Does this mean you're keeping the vent windows? Because I dig vent windows on the early car.s

Definitely I like that the vent windows make the 67 unique... also nostalgic

Took them apart to rechrome and rebuild
