Driver's Window Adjustment

[kaos725]

The driver's window on my 79 Vette does not roll up all the way. I replaced the motor a few years back and the window sealed fine. I just recently bought an Astro Shield one piece top and I now notice that there is about a 1/4" gap between the weatherstrip and the window. All I can think of is that the original weatherstrip must have been thicker. But as I look at the window it really should be up further...
Is this adjustment fairly easy to do? Any suggestions.

Thanks,
Andy

Hi Andy,

Yes, this is easy to do. Remove the door panel. There's an adjustable stop at the top of each window track. Loosen the 7/16 bolt on each one. Move the window up to position and tighten the bolts.\

Astro Top

How do you like that Astro Top? I saw it in Corvette Central Parts Brochure and was thinking about it for my 79.
