Dude, your car's so clean! I'm in your picture of the pace car standing next to the lil red truck, and talking to another Mustang guy. I saw that purty lil 85 GT and thought they'd look good together. Very nice taste, and I love the 17" 10-holes. We're classing up Pinehurst with some real taste in fine foxes!

Jerry, with the pace car, is also an original owner. He showed me pics of him going pheasant hunting in it as a teenager.

Have not broken out the tools for this one in a long time.



I have an LMR spare in a box, but can't bear to toss this one. Can't remember, is this what Jrichker did a rebuild thread on or was it the lock actuators?




It sure looks designed to be serviced.

I pull it apart and if the brushes are still in good shape then I would just clean up the contact points, grease it up, put it back together and see if it works. If it does then replace the gears if necessary and reinstall.

That's probably all it needs. It got to the point it was intermittent, but when it worked, it worked just fine. I got into it tonight, because after unloading it from the trailer, I couldn't get the window up, but after a couple light taps on the motor's mount while pushing the button, it went right back up.
