Vent Window frame for '65
I have a 65 with a LH vent window frame that has a broken hinge. I can but the new hinge to weld on but I would rather buy a replacement vent frame.
Does anybody supply these?

Call Corvette Central or Paragon Reproductions. They rebuild these and I believe could suppy you with one. Or, call Charlie Santorellii in New Jersey. I think his companie's name is Stingray Corvette, not sure on name. He restores seat belts and does very nice work. Do a forum seacrh for Charlie's name or seatbelt restoreres.

Vent window repair
I saw your post about repairs to the vent window. Do you do coupe and convertible? I have a 66 convertible and the pivot post on the right side twisted off. I still have the original post and would like to use it if possible. Just thought I'd check. Thanks, Eric
