Sorry Bob that it is late but it was movie night with wifey..... ****INSIDE****

First I get "Evergreen" Polystyrene Strips.
1). The outer frame I use .#143 (.040x.060) strips. Up the "A" pillar across the top of the door and rear window. Down the "B" pillar
Use this on the rear of the wing window.
2). The post/sedan you can use the same #135 (.030x.100) but I glue two pieces together then re-scribe the line where they meet. That will make that a little wider to show where
the door meets the rear window or you can use or use one strip of #143 (.040x.060) but you'll have to be careful when you scribe a line in that small of a piece. Using #143 may
be a little wider but you should have any problems cause it doesn't wrong. Cut a notch on the top of the door and top of the quarter where it meets. Be careful and don't leave it
without notching it cause the interior tub won't fit up in there. It's not strong enough to just glue on top without notching. When you get it in just put some super glue in the void
because the post will have an angle, you can sand it later.
3). The lower wing window frame I use #132 (.030x.040) That part of the frame is a little smaller and if you want to get fancy later take a sharpie and give it a swipe half way across
to show the rubber.

I hope I didn't make it complicated but once you do one it's simple and you can develop your own technique.
Hope this works out for you.
