    I pulled the original rear window regulators out of storage and found that the teeth are destroyed on the big gears. I searched for N.O.S., aftermarket and repair parts on the web but can't find anything available. Any help would be very appreciated at this point. Thanks!

    i doubt anyone makes repair parts for it... your best bet is to find a set from a donor vehicle...

    call Bob Owens at Owens salvage in Texas, he will more than likely be able to help you

    Thanks for your input Fiddyfour. It may be the way to go.
     
  4. I hope you know that those regulators are designed to slide the window to the rear after it is at the top..so you can have some ventilation without rolling the window down..

    I am begining to understand why the previous owner "fixed" the windows on my Fordy Tudor. That gives me the excuse to have the uphostery man button a removable tonneau cover from top of back seat to top of front seat. Has anybody ever seen that?

    Thank all of you for your help. I don't think the 4 doors fit the 2 door but I may be wrong. I will be happy to contact some Hambers through a pm, but all input is great to get! Thanks again.
