The drivers side window glass on our 1930 Town Sedan has developed a crack from top to bottum. How do you remove the glass for replacement? When I did our 1930 Pickup awhile back it was a simple matter of removing two screws from the top frame, raising the window, disconnecting the lift arm, and pulling the glass out from the top. I don't see anything that looks removable from the top of the TS door.

Remove the garnish moulding that surounds the window. Loosen the glass channel at the top sides. Crank the window up and tilt into the car. Crank until the track is all the way up and exposed and remove track from regulator arm. reverse to install new window.

Oh good, I was worrying I had to remove the door panel and go from there. Thanks very much for the how-to.
