I have found a good anodizer and polishing shop and did a batch of horizontal targa bar trim that turned out great. I am going to do a batch of window posts. I have three sets of early and 8 sets of late posts.

Pricing should be about $60 per post. It will require removing out the rivets fro the steel brackets and reinstalling them. Will probably need to replate them while they are off.

I need to do several sets at a time to cover the minimum costs.

I am good on cores for now to get started but could use more if there is enough interest.

Who is in?

I’m in for an early set. I have some cores if you run low.

Hi Bruce,
Great timing. I’ll take a late set. Thanks.

Bruce, can you show what posts you are talking about (Photo )

Here you go.

The shiny one is polished only. The duller ones are anodized. They may look scratched but it is just dust.

I'd like one set of late model for a 1974.

Yes! I need a set for a 76.

Any chance they will do 911 window frames?

Check the material. Some are chrome plated brass. They have to be completely taken apart.
@tdskip

Count me in for 5 early sets

I am in for an early set…..have decent cores as well.
Perfect timing for me.

Brass up through 67. 68 is aluminum vent window, 69+ aluminum without vent window.

one of my cars has early doors and the other late (not taken apart) - quick run down of the differences ?


.

The channel shape is different. The early posts have lip to keep the rollers in the track.

A late set for me
Please

Put me in for two sets late 74. i have some cores also if needed.

Thanks,

Update on the window posts. The polishing is nearly done. After that they go for anodizing and then to rivet on the brackets.
I am going to need deposits to cover the polishing cost and anodizing which will be over $1000. I prefer Venmo or Zelle or checks. I will send PM's with that information.
I will also need cores from those that can supply them. Some of you have already send cores. I found that several post were not usable as that were twisted or had scratches that were too deep to polish out. Many more were too curved but I made a jig and recurved them. i have enough cores to supply all those that have inquired but want to be able to continue this service.

Bruce - I’m still interested and can send you some me cores. When you pm me, including your shipping address.

I could also use a quote on early 911 aluminum window frames if you are able to do them.
Thanks

PM sent

@mepstein

I am doing a couple pair of early 911 frames. They are a ton of work. It takes about an hour per frame to take apart. Some of the fasteners
have the rivet as part of the tab and will take some fab work to put them back together.
I need to get thru with these before I take on more work. But it will be ore econimical to do yours at the same time.
We can talk later

Sounds good. I can take apart and prep when it’s time.

I would be interested in a set.. also still need a new driver side glass. Not the 1/4 window.

@mb911

I will see if i have an extra set when i get them back. Do you need early or late? And on the window do you need ckear or tinted?

Late.. I will check the glass next time I go to the warehouse

If any of these are still available, I’d like a set for my ‘73.

Thanks

Mack

@jims914

Here is a picture of an early and late post. The early has the smaller gap.

I will let you know if i have enough Monday when i pick them up from polishing.
I took in a few extra sets. I have had a few other members also want a set.
I will do another after this batch. I m going to need cores.
