Brokengate, After all this time I am still working on the power windows. After getting back to the windows after completing some of my other projects I decided to go ahead and replace the window guides and anti-rattlers and the seals on the vents. Seems like this is one of those projects that once you get into you keep finding things that don't have to be done right now but if you don't you will have to address it at some later point.



Then I finished cutting the holes for the wires and finishing the wiring for the power windows and power door locks, I installed the power door locks.



Ordered the Nu-Relics Power window regulators and received them late yesterday afternoon. I have to tell you I am impressed. I've used other "universal" power window kits and this kit is in another league all together. Very well built. Comes with new rollers and wiring plugs.

John, Sorry didn't see your post. That is good info to know on my search.

I was thinking about shaving the door handles but I wanted to keep it somewhat stock looking so I decided on electric locks and keeping the handles.



I want to put sound deadener in the doors but I’m going to wait a bit because I have a little bit of rust in the front bottom corners of each door to fix. This would definitely be the time to fix it but I want to wait and do all the bodywork while I have my body man hat on. I have my electricians hat on now.



Any way, sound deadener. I painted the complete floor with Rust Bullet then installed Dynamat.

Master Cylinder what happened to the days when a honey do was sweeping the side walk after the wife mowed the lawn?  That is a joke if my wife reads this.  I will pay attention if you continue to post progress on the windows, the electric locks are interesting but I'm leaning toward shaving the handles and doing door poppers.  Are you going to install the sound deadener material on the outer door skin, haven't taken a good look to check on installation possibilities, but all I've read says it is a good benefit.

Brokengate, All I can tell you at this point is the Nu-Relics regulators are really nice looking and should bolt right in. I haven’t worked on the installation since Ol’ford Nut sent me the picture of where to drill the holes in the doors (BIG help, thanks again) and I drilled pilot holes. Oh, and I removed the glass, channel and old regulators.



I got side tracked installing Aerostar front springs, and then I decided to run wires for electric door locks at the same time. Need 5 wires for the windows and 5 for the locks. Going to need a big piece of conduit between the door and pillar. I was going to use some of that rubber accordion conduit but can’t find any big enough but have some ideas.



And lastly too keep my wife happy?? so she allows me to play I decided to tear down a wall in our house between the kitchen and dining room to open it up some. She’s been asking for awhile now and since the weather is getting cooler I thought I better get to it.

Master Cylinder did you complete the windows, if so how did it go? I really like the retro fit without drilling and am curious if it works as stated and if you're satisfied with the product. I don't mind the price if the install and operation work well, thanks.

The one in the picture is for the Full Size car. This is the one I'm putting in my '55 Ranchwagon. Little more expensive than some kits but really nice design. Made in USA.

Ol'ford Nut, thanks for the picture, it even give the measurements of the size of the holes and where the holes should be drilled. Tremendous help. That's an awesome book you have.

Sorry, it's a the upper left on my profile but here it is anyway dljsimp-yblocks@yahoo.com



For anyone who is interested in what I'm making a fuss about, here is a picture of the power windows I am installing. They mount in the original holes and use the original glass channel.
