Slow but goes somehow... there are other little things on the tin ... :)
 
Great work. I think we all wish we had those skills plus the determination you have.
 
You look to be having fun with that door.

Hope you are aware that the window winder mechanisms in a 504 can be swapped front to back. Usually the rear window winders are in a an unworn condition. :)
 
I thought we'd end up with tin and welding yesterday ... but we are not...there are a few small things...

The car has been parked since 1990 ...
the chrome moldings that I missed, and a few more spare handles

Size of rear window

Does anyone like to help
Could you please tell me the width and height of rear window 504
 
Great work. It's good to hear from you and get an update. Being at the paint stage is something of a milestone!
 
What did you do about the waterdrain holes at the bottom of the windscreens, both front and rear, Dishaka ?
Did you seal them up ? Because many people have done this in the past, and it hasn't worked so well. It is best to create new ones.
If you look at the rear ones, there are small tubes. That is a good design.
I have created (larger) tubes like this in the front windscreen, and they have worked well.

I know you probably don't want to do it, but now is the time to do it.
One possibility is to put windscreen sealant all around the rubber to stop water getting in at all. Otherwise water WILL get in and it will just sit there and promote rust.

But the best (by far) is to create SLOTS so that the water drains out easily. I saw this design in Renault 12 s.
By "slots", I just mean a long indentation...like a drain or gutter in the street.

great question, the master closed those holes and I would have to solve them, with at least some plastic small tube, I would have to work it out :cheers:
 
Cool.

It's a relatively small amount of extra work now, but it will save you a lot of extra work later.
