79 rear window struts?
I just acquired a very very nice all original 79 but need to replace the rear window struts. Is there anyone selling new one or is it possible to rebuild the old ones? These are the ones that have the defroster wire running through them so I cant just replace them with a set of standard aftermarket ones.

Stupid question but wouldn't it is possible to install some sort of clamp that you hand tighten, it would take about two seconds to lock it down and imo is better than any hydraulic system because there's no room for your friend leaking on the window and smashing your fingers..

I will update as soon as then get back to me. To the questions , why not use the strut clamp or why not just make the wire work on newer struts … that's not how keeping a car original works. to be fair the car will never see the rain or ever have the need for the rear defrosters but original is original so that's what must be done.
