point of clarification.... I'm talking about pulling the door completely apart and replacing all the guts required to raise and lower the windows.
Also interested in knowing how tough a job it is to replace the rubber in one of those little wing windows.
Pat
Anyone ever replace these before.

Hi Pat,
I guess I didn't see your original post. It's not too bad of a job but It's a lot easier with two people. One to hold the glass and move it up and down as needed. I did it by myself on my '67 but it was a pain.
You might get some info here too:

I replaced those plastic riveted wheels for the driver window in my 65 elky and had everything apart (i didnt cut the door apart or anything) it was a major pain tryin to install the both ends of the window cranking mechanism and stuff while tryin to hold up the glass, i tried different things to keep the glass up with no luck.
i havent had the pleasure of replacing the wing windows yet, but it sure looks fun too...
good luck there!
