Hi all. Working on my '66 Newport 2 door. Recently the brightwork at the top of the windshield blew off of the car while driving on the freeway. Come to find out that it was glued on, and the glue failed. I can't find any clips present to hold the trim in place, hence the glue. I sourced a...

So, after many months of speculation, I've now confirmed that my rear window leaks water into the trunk. What to do? I can see that someone, at sometime in the past, did some sort of repair to the seal, as some black rtv-like substance can be seen, but no other details are available. I'm...

The front door glass on the passenger side of my 66 Newport is about a half inch lower in the rear and then it is in the front. I didn’t see anything in the FSM about adjusting that. Does anyone have any insight on how that can be remedied? The gap creates wind noise and allows water to leak in...

I had already guessed by the sloppily applied and grossly over-sprayed truck bed liner that there were some previous repairs made to the trunk at some point in the past. After this winters bout with way too much condensation, both in the cabin and in the trunk, I decided that on a nice warm...

Anyone have a picture of a 65-66 Newport 2 Door NOS or survivor C pillar trim piece showing which portions are painted black? I know the outer two horizontal portions are painted, but what about the center section? All black? Black lower portions and chrome raised portions? All chrome? thanks!

Hi The windshield on my '66 Newport leaks at the bottom when it is raining. I get little pools of water at the seal where it meets the dash pad. Not a lot, but enough to drip down and potentially ruin the carpet (again). I'm worried about the windshield breaking when removing it to replace...

I'm trying to remove the backup light housings so I can clean them up, replace the bulbs, etc. I removed the two screws that go through the lens, and the assembly kind of moves around, but the lens won't come off, and the housing won't come out either. Not wanting to break something while...
