I have been putting off installing the rear window on my 52 Hollywood and finally got around to it today. I had heard nightmare stories about glass breaking, and taking all day with numerous people involved. I am happy to say, my neighbor and I had it done in 45 minutes, start to finish. I used the gasket from K-Gap and liberal amounts of soapy water. It took longet to assemble the gasket than the actual install.
I can finally wash off a years worth of dust and maybe get some progress pictures posted. I still need to install the interior, drivetrain, wiring harness and lots of stainless. I am still shooting for Oklahoma......we'll see.

  • If k-gap has the gasket to a hollywood, they do not list it in their catalog. Do you have a k-gap part number? Please post it on this forum for the rest of us. Thanks:)

    Should the front window and rear window be out when headliner is installed on a 54 hornet??
