OK, I guess this is my first official posting to the list seeking help regarding a bus that I OWN now :) . OK, this is a '78 bus and the lower pivot for the sliding door vent window has rotted away and is now nonexistent. This means that I must replace something. Bentley says how to get it out and in so that's not the problem. I'm wondering if I have to buy a whole new frame or if the frame is in pieces and I could buy the bottom piece separately? Is the frame readily available from a FLAPS or maybe a FLforeignAPS (I have a good one at home in Tennessee) or is this more than likely to be a junkyard item? Prolly junkyard if I can find one in good shape. Also, has anyone else had to remove that window? Is it as easy as it looks? (I know, it's never as easy as it looks, but just checking.) Hints, suggestions, ideas??? Thanks, Sean
