WHAT ARE THE DIMENTIONS FOR THE DOOR GLASS ON A 28 SPORT COUPE?

wrndln · 11-10-2010, 12:23 PM

If you have the Ford service bulletins, on page 250 there are pictures with dimensions of all the glass for 28 model A's. As far as the door window glass, it states 25 7/16" to 25 1/2" wide and 19" to 19 1/16" high. The edges are rounded and polished, with the bottom edge chamfered at a 45 degree angle with the angled edges 1/16" wide. The corners are rounded so as not to dig into the felt side channels. Hope this helps.

I should add, the picture Mitch posted looks like it is for a 30/31 door glass. The picture of the bottom chamfer and the rounded corners are the same for a 28.

I believe that Rem is correct. I rechecked and there are two pictures of the coupe/tudor door windows in the bulletins. The correct size is: 26 13/16" x 16 3/8". The corners are radiued at 1/4". I guess I should have checked more into the service bulletins. I thought they were always correct. Sorry for the misleading info.

There is a problem with the dimensions in the service bullitens.

It shows the tudor, coupe and and AA door glass to all be the same.
This is a May 1928 bulliten so it would be referring to the 82A cab.
I think the dimensions shown are for the truck cab as it is 19+ inches tall and 25 7/16 long glass would fall out of a tudor.
Does anyone have any further info to clear this up.

The pic Mitch put up appears to be for a tudor quarter glass.

No.......you are right about that mistake Rem/Mo, it clearly is for another unit. I wasted a good piece of glass cutting for my coupe. I can't remember but I think it was closer to 27" long.

My tudor glass measures 26 3/4.
