A little progress on my 1920 K45

[Frank Wilkie]

Picking at my 1920 K45  from time to time. Still working on getting the motor un-stuck..  I worked on securing the REX ALL SEASONS Top in the rear section after finding the original mounting brackets. I installed today the rear side windows just to see how they would look on it..  It's different.

Frank, 

   That is a very different look.  If that glass is original it should be replaced with tempered glass on the sides and rear, and safety glass in the windshield.  Did you find that you were able to replace the windows in an instant as advertised.  They look rather large and heavy.   The sales brochure makes it look like the side windows are 1/2 way rolled down, so that can't be right.

So now I am wondering what is the difference between a California top (1925 Buick) and a Rex top?

I've just messed with the rear side window , but once you see how it's mounted it would't take much time to remove.  They are large and heavy.  The door windows do raise up and down.

In the brochure it shows a different design for the rear side window. This is 1923 Brochure so it appears they made a redesign for looks. My top was bought new in 1920 and put on by the Buick dealership.  REX made tops for different makes of cars and had brochures and just a page ad for the various cars..
