The Marketplace Wanted

For my 1959 dodge… ventwindow (leftside) and the quarterwindow rear on the left(driver) side, it is a 2 dr HT.

Thanks Wim

Do you have clear or tinted glass?

Last year I gave away a full set of clear Windows to a guy in Germany because nobody wanted them

Wim, do you just need the glass for the vent, or also the frame?

I replaced my driver’s side vent since the white metal frame was broken. You can have it if you want it - perhaps if Matthew visits this summer, he can bring it back for you. It can be repaired, but it takes a special weld. I will take pix of what I have and post.

Here’s what I got - this was the first thing Matthew and I worked on, ten years ago! You can see where the frame is broken, in two places…

I saved it, because - I just don’t throw anything away.

There is a right hand vent window assy on ebay right now. There was a left hand one but I didn’t find it. Someone is auctioning the Hemmings article about my convertible on ebay also.

Dan, That is what I am looking for, it doesn’t matter that it is broken, I can fix that. The color of the glass is not important, it can easily been changed.
Do you maybe also have the rear leftside window?

Thanks wim

Dick, I can’t find anything on ebay, doe you maybe have a link?

Thanks wim

Here you go Wim - Hope it helps.

All the vent windows listed are for 57-58. 59’s are different!

12

That is correct, according to my interchange manual 1957 chrysler will also fit.
And the side rear window fits only 58 and 59 plymouth and dodge.
To be sure I have to look in the manual but I am on holiday now and I didn’t breng the book..

Thanks wim

Look what I found!

It’s broken but I guess easily fixed

Hey Matthew that is what I am looking for. The right side is also broken at the same place, so I have to fix that one too.

Thanks wim

(Matthew, don’t forget that you and your dad have a pair of 4-door vent windows in my basement. I have a box I can ship them to you in, it’s in the shape of a torqueflite :smiley: No worries - it all can stay rent-free, I just wanted to make sure you hadn’t forgotten about them.)

16

Dan - You can ship those 4 dr. Vent (AHEM) windows to me along with the valence.

If I’m not mistaken Dick, they’re for a 4 door sedan, not a 4 door hardtop.

18

I don’t care what they are for it’s the crate I’m interested in!!!

(Hopefully) a jeep?? :laughing:

Just for reference, these vent window assemblies will interchange-

'59 Plymouth, 2 and 4-door HT
58 Chrysler 2 and 4-door HT
'59 Chrysler 2 and 4-door HT
'58 Desoto 2 and 4-door HT
'59 Desoto 2 and 4-door HT
'58 Dodge 2 and 4-door HT
'59 Dodge 2 and 4-door HT

There is a small difference in convertible vent window frames, but they will fit also.
