Bob Drake Catalog

800-221-FORD (3673)

WINDOW GLASS CHANNELS

Drake’s kits feature a complete combination of all the correct pre-shaped channels, felt strips and hardware to make

your Ford’s windows function like new. All kits come with everything needed. Unlike other suppliers, every detail is

perfectly copied offering a superior look, fit and function.

1941-48 Coupes

Ford made two types of Coupes and the doors are different sizes. Measure your window

opening between the vent window division bar and the inside edge of the rear post.

Sedan Coupe (large door) approximately 26"

Business Coupe (small door) approximately 171/2"

1941-42 Coupes & Sedans

On the inside of each of the front doors there is a large metal channel that mounts

vertically to guide the front edge of the door glass. Ford used two different lower

mounting brackets on this vertical channel. Check your original lower mounting

brackets and choose our kit part number with either “-A” or “-B” in suffix, to

determine your correct kit as shown at left.

All Bob Drake Kits Include The Right Stuff

Drake's kits are right-on, meaning they're correct in every detail, right down to the original-style

fasteners, for an easy installation without hunting for hard-to-find hardware..

Vent Window Glass Edge Seals

We include RH & LH vent window glass edge seals in all kits, which

attach to the division bar and seal the rear edge of the vent window

glass when closed.

Window Glass Channel Kits

1932-48 Ford Cars / 1932-47 Pickups & Trucks / 1938-47 Cabovers

1932-42 Cars: Originally black, cloth-wrapped or metal beaded

edges by Ford, and that's how we build them today.

Option: Some of these kits are available with polished stainless

steel edge beading for around the window openings. If you

desire this option, order the kit part number with "-SS" in the part

number suffix, if available.

1946-48 Cars: These kits come only with polished stainless steel

edge beading for around the window openings, just as all these

cars had originally.
