My driver's door (the right one) window has a problem which also
afflicted my 75 Bay.

When wound down it drops backward with a clunk against the back of the
door. When driving it clunks backward every time I step on the gas, then
moves back forward, ready to annoy me again. Anyone familiar with the
problem and its cure? A block of rubber glued to the inside of the back
of the door?

Last week my driver's window suddenly jammed and quit working. I was
looking at the "Clunk" issue that last night as I fixed the window crank
on my 82.  One screw holding the horizontal bar which the window rests
on had come loose.   In the process of removing the door panels and
messing with the window, I noticed the same clunk.  I have noticed it a
few times while driving but have not attempted to fix it.

Last night's examination revealed that the rubber backing on the
vertical window track does not go down far enough in the back.  When the
window gets rolled down below the back edge of the the vertical track,
it allows the window to rotate back, hence the clunk when it hits the
door metal.  I believe a rubber block or a piece of foam weather strip
glued inside the door below the vertical window track would fix this.
They even make it with adhesive already in place.  I'll do it some day.
I got new panel clips at the dealer today and re-installed the door
paneling this eve, the window is fixed.
