  I think we should continue this topic in this section.

  Gror are your doors blank like mine are on the inside ? I know that wood fits under the glass. If so I think you may be able to use the whole window like Mike has if you drop it down a little lower. I think you may need to install new door skins so you will get a good fit. Below is a pic of Mike's window in my door. Note the gap on top & at the lower right corner. I also have two doors from a 1954 that I think looks like Mike's inside...

Here is a picture of a sliding window I've been eyeing on for side windows, just wondering if anyone out there knows of a place that makes sliding windows that can be made to fit the bombardier windows

Sylvester glass and aluminum products in North Battleford Saskatchewan at 306-445-6233 have made sliding windows for the front of the Bombardier after I sent them a drawing of the opening they cost $500 for two but can make any window. For the back windows I took them out of a truck camper . If you go to Northern truck under old blue 1963 rebuild you will see these windows in my Bombardier

Hey, just got an email from the company. Apparently they do not make windows for bombardiers anymore, so I am checking with another company that makes windows, and I will see what they can do. Thanks again old blue
