hard top '65

[Twan B.]

Hi!

I'am rebuilding my hard top and i don't know how the front seal fits on the retainer clips on the moulding. The seal has a LH and a RH but on the AIM sheeds i can't see clear.
Does anyone have some information or pics. how the fitted.
I know that the clips are fitted on the moulding with paper tape.

Thanks
Twan

Twan -

The 1963 Corvette Shop Manual has eight pages of excellent illustrations and photos covering the hardtop moldings and seals - much better than the Assembly Manual.

Thanks John,

Correct me if i'am wrong, but are the above mouldings fitted after or before the window is placed in the hard top?!

Thanks

As far as I know, the moldings were all installed after installing the window. The clips for the window molding, however, were installed on the flange prior to installing the window and its rubber seal.
