Title: 1969 Deluxe Interior window regulators
Post by: epetit on November 29, 2009, 07:56:33 PM: Hey guys.

In the process of restoration, and thought maybe someone here could tell me what the difference is between a standard and deluxe interior window regulator ?.
My car is coded to have the deluxe interior, but someone has installed the standard door opening mechanizims, and I am not sure if the regulators have been changed. Am I right in thinking that the deluxe regulators would have longer shafts for the window crank to attach too ?. If so, how do I tell what I have currently?.
Thanks

I asked him to measure one of his reproduced regulators and he said the shaft length was 1 1/4 inches long measured from the bearing housing.
Does this sound right ?
