Have A-B-F Inc regulators, one with missing window crank shaft, cap housing and small 1-1/8" diameter 12 tooth gear. About one third of the cap housing is raised to cover the big gear (4" diameter), 5/16" end on shaft that stubs through the regulator plate hole, mounts to 3 - 5/16" holes, two next to big gear 1-3/4" apart, third hole 1-5/16" from them near edge of plate. This is the less used regulator that is not in re-pro. I will buy whole regulator, but only need these parts. Thanks, Roy King lightwolf@bellsouth.net 336 228 1888

If you can't find a replacement regulator, or parts, a good shop can usually rebuild a regulator. My '47 convertible was missing the correct regulator for one side, and they are quite different from the closed car type. After looking all over for a replacement, I bought one on line, but it was in very bad shape. We made a new crankshaft, and wire welded material for new teeth, then shaped them with a die grinder. It wasn't easy, but when you are looking for a rare part, often there is no other choice. I now have the correct "nine turn" regulators on both sides for the heavy windows and frames.

have you tried Dick Spadaro (dickspadaro.com)? he has a lot of used parts not listed on his website. Give him a call.

In addition to Spadaro you might try Regulator Roy who advertises in the V-8 Times.He specializes in window regulators.
