power windows to manual windows swap

[lxmodguy]

Has anyone done it? The power windows seem pretty hard to come by these days.

You will need manual regulators, window cranks and some long gloves to protect your fore arms, lol!

I think all you need is the slider piece at the bottom of the window to convert to manual. I may have a set but it will be a few weeks before I get to the storage area to pick them up. I would be interested in trading for yours. Do you have the switches too?

lxmodguy, I realize this is a 4 year old post. Buut, would you please share with me pictures of your front door to a-pillar jamb and your rear door to b-pillar jamb, if your car is 4-door? I have a complete power window system out of a 4-door but when I removed them from a parts car 20 years ago, I wasn't wise enough to make a paper template of the hole diameters or locations on both the door and the jamb for the black plastic sleeve tubes that install in the front jamb and the cad plated steel sleeve tubes that install in the rear jamb. ANYTHING you can shoot and send would be worth a six pack of your favorite beer to me. Not joking. Will PayPal you the money or send a check. Thanks in advance.

Ooops. Cannot even tell year age. Meant to say 6 year old post.

I would be interested in buying your power window system. Thanks, Tom.

Buy your 62-65 B-body restoration parts from Joe Suchy. His latest parts list is attached.

I've received the information I was requesting on this thread through another avenue.
