Is there any one that can rebuild a window regulator for the door windows on a 1946 Ford Convertible. Can't find part anywhere.

Do you know what part is broken ? What regulator - front or back ?

Maybe use a closed car regulator for parts to repair your conv. regulator.

I would try posting a request in the Swap Meet Wanted section of the Barn.

Have you talked with Regulator Roy? He has many NOS regulators.

Often take old similar regulators apart for pieces, except for the drive gear off the handle shaft which get the brunt of the wear. Be aware Ford used a couple of different suppliers and their regulators vary slightly. You can get new drive gears from aftermarket suppliers, the number of teeth is very important, 6 is very common.
