Anyone know how hard (or hopefully easy) of a job it is to install a new window regulator and scissor assembly in a 65-66 coupe??? It's something I've put off for far too long after seeing how tight it is to work in the door when I take the panel off. But I'm finally committed and ready to crack down and make this my next project.

well, i've done it on both doors before. It is a pain in the butt to do, and be prepared for a really tight fit It can be confusing at first, but once you get one side on, the other should be better. Need any help I might be able to help. Good Luck with it

Kool...so far doesn't sound too bad of a job, actually, u guys both said "pain in the butt" lol... the good new is I only have to do 1 side. Hopefully it'll just take a couple hours. I'm going to order the parts and hopefully finish it next Saturday.
