Thank, Bob, That would be most helpful. It would seem that the unit was mass produced at some time, but I have no description of what it was ever used on other than the Marcos.

Hi Larry I will take more pictures and measurements for you today, it works on a very basic system of a spring loaded section which can be adjusted by the bolt as seen in the picture this stops the glass from dropping or pushing glass up by creating neutral balance of weight allowing you to just push the glass up or down by hand the pressure is transferred down the pivoted flat steel bar that runs freely in the horizontal channel at the bottom.

Would it be possible to take pictures with the window at different levels? I need to know how it lifts and lowers; what parts move and in which direction.

Ah, Larry I wish I knew the answer. Frankly, I'm so frustrated that the otherwise fantastic car has begun to loose its attraction for me. It's been about 5 years in progress, and there is light at the end of the tunnel, but I'm almost ready to throw in the towel. It's a late '68 and totally stock. The restorer lost the glass on the right side, and the window lift mechanisms for both sides. Guessing the window shape won't change, but I don't know which shape to tell you. I do have the original frames. But have yet to figure out how they mount. I'll try the early corvette lift mechanisms. Again, thanks for your help. Greg
