Removing Quarter Glass on a 1979 through 1984 Ford Mustang

This is the pictures from my 1979 roof that was cut off my car



You can see the rust damage 



Notice that the 1979 Mustang has all mounting points on the inside of the car. If your in the junkyard you would have to battle the interior rear quarter plastics to get to this. In the junkyard you will need 1/2 inch drive torx bit socket set, a ratchet and a Philips Screw driver for removing the interior panels. In 1987 to 93 Mustangs your glass will be mounted on the exterior of the car and span the whole plastic sail section using same mounting points. Take great care when performing the removal of these windows, because as of now these windows are not reproduced.  


Far right pic is the tools needed to remove the rear quarter windows.














While taking great care slowly work back and forth with the handles and wire cutting through the window seal tape. When working with this stuff you will want gloves and you definitely. 


This is why you should wear the rubber gloves 



This is the rear quarter opening on a 1987 to 93 mustang. It can be modified to take the older windows and quarter plastics, but you will have to the opening out more to make it work and drill holes for the plastic piece shown. 


Pic to the left is 1987 - 93 mustang and pic to the right is the opening you would see in a 1979 - 86 Mustang, which is wider and cut right up to the spot welds and notched for the Aluminum chrome pieces used to trim the window.
