How to Remove a 67 Chevelle Rear Quarter Window

The 1967 Chevrolet Chevelle was part of the first generation of the long-lasting line that began production in 1963. The Chevelle is considered one of Chevrolets biggest selling and most popular models. Removing the rear quarter window from your 67 Chevelle is a fairly simple process and can be done with just a few common tools. If you have basic auto repair knowledge, you can do the work yourself and save the cost of professional labor fees.

Instructions

1

Use the Phillips-head screwdriver to remove the mounting screws that attach the trim around the edges of the quarter window. Remove the trim from the window and set it aside.

2

Carefully remove the weatherstripping from around the window. Use your fingers to unhook and pull it away from around the window. Set it aside with the window trim.

3

Use a sharp blade to cut away the rubber gasket from around the edges of the window. Make an initial incision at the top of the gasket and cut around the window in a clockwise direction until you have removed all of the gasket.

4

Put on protective gloves, and press the quarter panel outward from inside the vehicle with your hands. Push the inside of the window with one hand while you brace the outside of the window with your other hand. In this way, you will be able to hold onto the window as you remove it from the frame. Be careful not to break the glass

5

Cut away the remainder of the gasket still attached to the window frame. Install the new glass window with a new gasket, and reattach the parts you removed in reverse order.
