While the windows are being worked on I figured I'd start clearing up the frame and track.

I had to really pry the hard weatherstripping out of the perimeter of the vent window.

When I did that, these little metal pieces fell out. Are they shims? There at the top portion of the frame in the channel between the side of the rubber and the inner channel wall. 2 on one window, and only 1 on the other.

Also, I noticed that one window had stainless beaded window channel and the other one did not. The channel stops at this metal track. Is it supposed to stop there? Or was this replaced and cut short? Someone check me that the channel is supposed to be 5/8" wide by 1/2" tall.

I'm going to derust and paint what steel I can and then polish up the stainless. I have all new seals waiting to go in.
