Title: 66 1/4 window rollers
Post by: MyRed66GT on July 04, 2011, 11:13:11 PM
I had my 1/4 windows replated and now the rollers attached to the windows themselves are kinda...for lack of a better work...screwed up (the plastic roller almost looks slightly melted). I've posted on other boards but came up empty. Does anyone repro these parts, if not what are my options?

Seems like I remember someone obtaining them, but I've never personally replaced them.  You might try using a file to get them back round if there's enough material to work with.

NPD and Virginia Classic Mustang have the window rollers you need.

I have a quarter window in front of me now and ' your screwed '.  Three plastic guides, not really rollers, fixed/stationary two white and one reddish/orange.  I have not seen any part of these assemblies repro'ed anywhere.  If you can; do as Caspian suggested and work with what you have, maybe rotate to a good spot.  Otherwise you will be buying two more quarter windows just for the studs and plastic guides.  Drilling the old peened studs off and reinstalling and threading and screwing the new/used ones on.  Good luck with this assignment.  Brian

I have a lot of old 67-68 quarter windows laying around if it would help. I not certain that they are the same as 66. Marty

I believe they do repro these for the 67-68 quarter windows. If they don't fit or I can't find the correct ones from NPD or Virginia Classic, I have plenty of other 1/4 windows to steal parts off of.
