Does anyone know where I can get a good used rear window for a 63 Lark
2dr sedan?  I also need the seal that fits around the window that will
allow me to use the tirm again, and since the window is out and the
headliner is gone I should probably replace that to.  I am trying to
get this car back on the road with in the next month so I can drive it
to school some before this winter.

It's not the same as a '62 is it?  I have one of those that came as a
package deal with a windshield I needed.

I don't think it is but I am not sure.  Looking at pictures of the 62,
63, and 64 Larks it looks like they all had different rear windows.

1963 rear windows were a one year only deal. the 62's are waaaay
different.
Do you have a 63 two door? I have a 63 Daytone HT. And do you HAVE to
remove all the glass to replace the head liner? I have a new one for
mine, and I really don't want to go through any unnessesary trouble.

Yep mines a 2dr. Sedan.  Where did you get your headliner and is it a
nice quality one?

Mine came from SASCO way back in 1997. It's NOS.

JP can hook you up...  I have one of his in my '62 and it looks just
fine.

I was told by the trim shop that did my car that they would far prefer
to have the glass out to replace the headliner.  Your old gaskets will
be unusable; buy new ones from Bill Fennessey.  It's not that hard to
R&R glass once you've done it a few times, but it does take two people.
The wraparound windshield in my '62 scares me though, I thought I'd
got it right but it cracked a couple weeks after I got it in.  The one
that the trim shop replaced it with is still OK however.  Guess they
have the magic touch.  What I find helps is LOTS of soapy water as
lube.  I'd feel similarly concerned about a C-K rear window but
fortunately I've never had to replace one of those!  The glass on a 63
is nice and flat though so you shouldn't have those kinds of issues.

I found installing the wrap around windshields real easy, (the one on
the T-cab practically fell into place), and with only one person but the
rear window on pre GT hawks and early sedans through 1958 to be a real
bear.  (I think the issue was that the gaskets are a mite too big).
