Hi Has anyone had any success with a good quality electric window conversion kit with regulators for a 1955 chevy second series truck? I need new regulators and power units would be handy Thanks
These are the guys.... 1955-1959 chevrolet truck power window (nu-relics.com) Pricey, but OEM quality and direct fit. Not some funky 'universal' kit that will require a bunch of fab work and then fail later.
Another vote for Nu-Relics. I wonder if they're still in business? I checked their site and everything is out of stock. I used to see them at the NSRA nats at Louisville but don't remember seeing them this year?
H&H cl***ics are listing them for the truck with the fancy switches that use the stock internal window handle. I looked at Nu Relics website, and they show no stock. H&H are $656. Think I’ll contact Nu Relics and see whether they reply. Never heard of H&H! Thanks for the guidance guys!
This is the kit i was looking for: https://hhcl***ic.com/i-20921786-nu-relics-front-power-window-kit-with-nu-cranks.html?ref=search:https://hhcl***ic.com/search.html?q=1955+chevy+truck+power+window&go=Go It has the switches that use the original winder handle. I’ll drop them a line as well. Thanks again
That looks and reads like the same kit link posted earlier ? edit: I see they add a set of crank switches. Kinda misleading in the first link posted but see it uses a more modern style switch set.
I kinda like the first one better, with the dual switch setup you can roll the p***enger side up/down from the drivers seat. Now where to hide the switches at?
got to remember that the switches that use the stock handle while slick and nice are only for one door you have to reach across to roll down the p***enger window ,, however you can remedy this by double wiring the motor on p*** door and using a 6 pole center sprung toggle under the dash to keep the switch hidden just have to remember not to work both simultaneously it will pop a fuse as both switches are current reversing i fuse them individually so one or the other and your not stuck in the rain . its not likley but it could happen ,, fabricator john miss you dad
