JoelsBuicks Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 I've only seen them referred to as rear vent windows. By the way, these Sr. 90 rear vent window frames are the same as the ones in my Sr. 80 and also my 37 Sr. 90. They are handed, that is, a left won't fit on the right.

Guest nagene Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Thanks for the input. By any chance do you know where i can buy two of them one for each side. I took mine to the chrome plater to get replated, the plating Company burned down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Grant Magrath Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Do you still have the frames? You could make patterns and get the glass cut at your local auto glass shop.Had to do that with nearly all the glass on the coupe.CheersGrant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nagene Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Hi I lost the chrome frame around the glass . I hace every thing else. I had the glass cut to size, then took the frames in to have chrome plated . Plating co. burned down. thanks for the input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BJM Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 There is a seller up in MN with 2 1936 senior Buicks. One is a Canadian Limited, the other a Roadmaster sedan. Between the two I am sure he has what you need. I may need 1-2 of what he has. I think I have both of mine but will have to check. (Mine is a 36 series 80 sedan, basket case) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest outlaw car man Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 would a 1933 90 frame work ? They are about 4 " longer then the standard model. If you can find sizes I might have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoelsBuicks Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I wonder if a parts exchange book would help? I've seen very similar or identical rear vent windows on other GM cars. A good example is one from a Pontiac shown in Ebay Listing 120740460354. This seller is in MN. I don't know that it fits but it looks close enough to inquire, but if I recall correctly, my Sr. 40 has these but they are not as tall. Too bad you couldn't go sifting the ruins to see if they made it - they are steel, not pot metal.Wish I could be more help,Joel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
