KigerStang gets modern gutterless look

[philt]

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Started the side window Gutter delete project early this morning.

Cut out the old gutters, migged the edges and then overlayed sheetmetal over the top for a nice flat surface to mount modern rubber.

The control system will automatically lower the window 1/2" when you have an identified key fob and you pull slightly on the door handle. After which the electric door solenoid will open the door. On closing the window will rise automatically once the door is closed. Similar to modern vehicles.

New metal welded in.

Inside post look I decided to weld new metal to make the top totally flat. This way the new rubber has a good chance to totally seal round the window top edge

Ready for skim coat of filler.

Ill send more pics once its complete and primed later this weekend.

Turkey rod run tomorrow in Daytona! Time to buy some parts.
