Default Leaking Problems...

Hello all, I am new to the forum and I just got my first Corvette. It's an 87 coupe with the 4+3 and a few problems. I noticed some bad wind noise coming from the windows so I installed new weatherstrip. Now the windows leak and the wind is much worse than before. I think the problem is my door/window has fallen out of adjustment. Can anyone let me know how to adjust the window/door to be closer to the weatherstrip if you even can? If not than are there any suggestions on what the problem may be?

Know,
I will ask a 'body-man' friend who has/had many Vettes. What do you have (body-style), previous damage(?) or anything else?

Let Us Know and Take Care, -John

Hello and Welcome.....Used the Search Function..This has been posted here many times and there are a few good posts on how to adjust the window...It's not hard..The hard part was putting on the weatherstripping ..Also ya might want to invest in a Factory Service Manual..Kinda the Corvette Bible...
