rear opening windows

[ats at longcoeur.com (Patrick Bureau)]

Actually you don't need to change the window at all, just pop the window
out, replace the seal with one that permits the glass to lay against (lip
style seal gasket instead of slip into model we use, use the hinges you
have, mark the glass and have a shop cut the holes for you (cost little to
do and a few minutes) and install back on your car :)

Now the question is what car has rear window hinges that would work with our
windows?

Subject: RE: 

i  actually thought of trying this. i aquired the hinges and latch 
mechanisms for the rear pop out windows from a mid 80's cavalier. the size 
and shape of the windows are quite similar. the job wouldn't be that hard, 
but you'd have to be a little creative. the hinges and latch would have to 
be mounted to the window, then mounted in appropriate spots on the inner 
window frame. that would be the easy part. the creative part would require 
fabricating a lip inside the existing window frame (making the opening 
smaller if you will) to create a surface for the window to seal to when 
shut. i never got around to trying the project, but have recently thought of

giving it a shot again since i have two wrecked shell to experiment on.
