Just bought this car, it runs great but the driver and passenger
windows rattle and move when shutting the doors.  Passenger window
doesn't track correctly when fully closed.  Is there any way to
tighten-up the tracking and firmness of the windows so they don't
rattle and they do track correctly.  Makes the car sound and seem like
a clunker.  Can anyone help me on how I can fix this problem?

I had a rattle in an 89 Z-24 Convertible when you'd close the door,
louder if the window was down, which tracked fine & went up & down fine.

Check the forward window channel in the front of the door. The aluminum
channel is riveted to an anchor and the rivets tend to tear out of the
aluminum channel allowing the channel to swing back & forth.

Easy to find a replacement parts at the junkyards. As far as I remember
coupe & convertible uses the same parts inside.

Also make sure the rubber stop block is on the stop mount on the bottom
center of the door.

Good luck.
