General Discussion / Re: Power Window Motor Rebuild
« Last post by schlepcar on March 26, 2024, 04:17:23 PM »
 I would  agree with doing it yourself or finding a local alternator rebuild shop to do the motors for you. You probably will be better off taking them the weakest one and get a quote if you don’t want to attempt it yourself. Somebody in your area knows the GUY that does starters and alternators. You may have fewer issues than you think. If you have a 67-9 Camaro that has smooth functioning rear windows,power or manual,it is because  someone totally dissembled them,lubed the tracks,replaced any broken pieces and adjusted. Only a low mileage original car would possibly escape this procedure. You will definitely be removing the rear seat and panels if they are assembled currently. Good luck….more time than dollars on that project.

Restoration / Re: Dash Panel Replacement now the Vin??
« Last post by Sauron327 on March 26, 2024, 03:20:19 PM »
Last 69 I did the owner supplied me with the VIN and partial dash top separately. I cut out the incorrectly shaped repro dash VIN hole, grafted in the GM donor dash section and replaced the VIN. Rosette and trim tag rivets are easily found on-line. Or ask someone in your network. Usually someone has a dozen or so  lying around from decades ago.

Decoding/Numbers / 67 Tag Decode
« Last post by red69 on March 26, 2024, 02:29:40 PM »
Local dealer has this 67 convertible on his lot. I'm not too familiar with 67's. Looked at decode info on site and think I have it, but don't want to give him bad info. It' red, black top badged as SS, original motor gone. Insite? Thanks

It is perfectly legal to remove and replace the VIN tag during dash restoration. The rivets are not visible, you can use regular rivets or find the proper ones. The only numbers worth grafting are the stamped hidden partial VIN's.

If you have any electro-mechanical skills - you can do it yourself.  Just have to be logical about how it came apart and how it goes back together.

Schlepcar.
I have both door motors out and tested. Both motors go up without issue, both very slow and weak coming to the down position. I have not removed the quarter window motors yet but they move very slow both directions in the car. I do not want to go the repop route, but the one vendor that I have contacted wants $225 per motor to go through them.
Any other vendor or advise is helpful.
