Subject:Rust around window openings
From:David Crook
Date:Wed, 6 Oct 1999 15:37:41 -0400

Good afternoon from a new subscriber...

We own two Westy's a 1978 and a 1980.  Both are automatics both are
air-conditioned and both have rust around parts of the window opening.
We want to semi restore them to use as daily drivers.  Before painting
them I want to remove and treat all of the rust spots...

Couple of questions;

   * are the windows difficult to remove?  Without removing them I won't
     be able to reach all of the problem areas.
   * Once the rust problem is treated and the vans are painted, will I
     be able to buy replacement window moulding ?
   * Where?
   * Will I be able to get them back in without prior experience or
     special tools?

Thank you very much...
