Or start hitting it with a hammer :hitaxeonthehead:

Sorry Jeff couldn't resist! :lol: Just put the windows down and you will be good.

I've tried some of the aftermarket window regs in the past :warning: their junk as far as I'm concerned. I alway try to reuse the org or hit eBay to find a set of orgs?? Now with you using the deluxe ones that can be a little tougher.

Polish up some mid-sized vice grips for the window cranks! You'll start a new trend....


OMG! Sorry to hear of these issues! But like you said -- at least it's happening while still at the shop. Unlike the azz hollio shop that built my '32 Ford and handed it to me to head for a show in Santa Barbara, California.... where it wouldn't run - finally did after I fixed that - only to die on the freeway - to ride on a rollback - with fluids dripping from everything that held fluids and no brake lights -- and on and on and on.

I wasn't really pissed until the idiots charged me to paint the taillight housings "WHITE" because the reason the lights didn't work was because we just couldn't see them... Then I was ready to go "postal".


I've never heard of the window crank issue.... and that sounds like maybe they need to try a different crank.... maybe a Ford or Mopar part -- at least to get you to the show?

Just like every OER part I have bought, they all go in the garbage or you spend half a day modifying it to make it work..

Man, it's so typical isn't it? You buy the best parts, and somehow they still find a way to fail. Makes me wonder how the OEM's ever get a car to run and be dependable for 100k miles when stuff like this happens. A key fob? The relay? How come that rarely happens on production cars? In the words of my daughter "Me not know"--but it sure is frustrating. Keep going brother, you will beat them all ---continue to be tenacious and you will win these mini battles that seem like a war right now. You are so close!

Jeff - The car looks and sounds exceptional!!! What Borla muffler are you using?

As for the Gremlins...............:smiley_smack:

If that Q-Fuel doesn't get it done "proper" look into a Holley HP Ultra. I'm really liking mine.

So the cruise in starts at 5:00 last night. I talk to Chris at 2:00 to see how things are going since he's an hour and a half away. Says he washing it and ready to go. Get a call at 3:30... It's spewing gas from the tank, major fuel leak.

Well the night before the gas gauge goes dead so they trace it to the sending unit. Drop the tank and realize the wire on the sending unit got rubbed through between the tank and undercoating so shorted out. Easy fix.... Well when they put the sending unit back in the gasket slipped and after fueling up yesterday once pressure in the take rose it started spitting fuel out.

Chris says he has 4 guys on it. once done he is ready to go...ugh. Here we go. I head down to the show with the crew and don't hear from him for a couple hours which gets me thinking it's not going to happen.

I get a call at 5:00... "Where am I going, almost there". Not only did he make it, he drove it the 80 miles from the shop to Napa! Crazy, brave, I don't know... What ever, but it was a grand entrance showing up about an hour late and rolling in with a full crowd.

Was awesome to see her come cruising in. Chris had a trunk full of spare parts just in case. What a great night.

I got to drive her home which was awesome. Getting ready to head out to the show in a bit. :thumbsup:

That's freaking AWESOME Jeff!!
