Been way too long. Could someone tell me what should go back into the doors first. I would really appreciate the advise. I don't want to do anything twice. Oh it is a 64 Barracuda.
 
Since nobody has replied I believe the order should be door hardware(latches and locks) first. next vent window followed by main glass. If I asked my wife she would say I was wrong(and might be correct)
 
I would do the vent window assy,door glass and then the guts. It is also a great time to replace the glass runs and cat whiskers...after the first 2 are in.
 
I 2nd sedanman--- get thwe vent window/glass in then the regulators then the small stuff. Lawrence

ahh early A.. you can do the vent window first if you want. but the door glass will have to go last. the door latch in the back of the door has to go into the door first since the rear channel runs in front of that and it's a monster trying to get it in after the rear glass channel. I 'd go front door latching and rod to rear latch mech. (easier to hook the rods up before the regulator goes in too!)

then the wing vent window and frame, align as best as you can. then the regulator then glass and align it all together (unless you were extremely luck to remember to pin the regulators and vent window frame to go back exactly as they came out, I didn't . Then changed it over to power windows which made it harder to adjust:banghead:).
