I wasn't trying to make anyone look stupid, I just wanted to know what they were.

There's a set of window regulators on Ebay right now. The guys name is Mike Peterson from Shevlin MN, his phone number is 218-556-3977 I've been up to his place, prices are a little high but he can come up with the goods. He takes complete cars and takes them apart for resale.

I found one regulator on the other site for ten bucks and it cost me another fifteen to get it here and it still needs the spring which costs five bucks. Langs has brand new ones for $29.95 in their 2006 catalog www.modeltford.com


Dave,
Also what does my coupe need for hinges? Also I resent that E-mail again did you get it?

Thanks for the info. Dont worry you can't hurt my feelings. I wasn't sure either way that's why I posted the link.

Yup, got the email this time.... I'll check on the coupe Monday and let you know on the hinges..... Did you guys get the snow this time Tom????

I'm not sure who you're asking but we got 8" yesterday and then tomorrow is supposed to be about 70 degrees F.

I just found the regulators, cranks, and window pinches at Mac's. Now all I need are the outside part of the hinges.

[QUOTE=Dave Severson] Did you guys get the snow this time Tom????

No snow YET. Had lots of slush last night to drive through. Got home tonight around 8:00 and it was snowing real lite.

Junked out two cars today an old K car and a Nissen, prices are still holding at $300.00 a ton for car bodies.

My son told me about a coupe the other day, looks like something in the '30s, I'll try to get some pictures, from the road it looks like several trees are growing through it.

Tom,
How come your son scrapes cars, and you have to get your window parts off ebay? I scraped 3 gm cars and kept 3 different types, they all should work. I kept all the power everything & controls.

I wouldn't run the door popper latches(stock) I did in my '47 KB2, and the doors would pop open some times and were in great to perfect condition! Good thing I run seat belts! I put bear claws in my '37 chevy. they are not hard to put in, but you have to think about it, so they line up. My pins floated like a factory one does.

I just thought that it would be easier to put the stock ones back in. In my stock 27 T tudor they work perfectly. Never even thought about using newer ones and then I might even start looking for electric ones.

Tell me more about the latches/door hinges

The easiest way for you Tom, is to have you know who, do it for you, I don't want to make work for him. I hooked mine to the stock door handles.
There are templates for some out there, I have seen them, I made my own. You'll need to drill screw holes, and a cut a notch in the door for the pin to pass thru like on your everyday car.
I bought mine at Ax Man's, they had a barrel full of them, at the time, for $2.50 each (double latch). about 7-8 yrs ago. I only bought 8 pair, and 7 of the chrome wiper motors with park at $6.00 each. I like bargain buys.
