I have a 1930 Coach and some of the window handles slip on the regulator splines.  Does anyone have any ideas for repair without having to buy the $65.00 a piece regulator repair kits?

Munch, I have drilled a small hole ( with handle on reg) 1/16 or next size larger, and put a roll pin in them before. I guess it would depend on you being able to get the drill in a tight spot. Good luck

Thanks, I'll give it a look.

Question.......Is it the splines inside the window winder handles or....... is it the spline on the winder mechanism ?

If its the splines inside the handles , then best to find a couple of new handles.  Custom chevy handles were made by billet specialties with correct splines.

Every once in a while an original repair kit appears on ebay, fits 1929--1938 PASSENGER CARS Chevrolet.  See if I can find the one on ebay I saw few days ago. and post a link to it.

YOU WANT THIS ONE......CHAMP ITEMS ***ONLY # 991 ***
only thing missing is the coiled spring.  Put it on an ebay search and every time one shows up for sale ebay will notify you.  Prices on these range from $5 too $30 depends on seller.
I typed in "window regulator repair kit #991 "

Thanks, I got it.

Cool, did you pin or replace them?

He means he won the ebay auction for the CHAMP ITEMS repair kit as posted in pictures above.  If he needs another the #991 kit appears on ebay from time to time.

See what happens when it arrives from the shipper and installs it.  I got a couple I bought for my 35 coupe, 25 years ago, never had to use them yet.

Sorry, yes I meant that I got the repair kit for 11.00 including shipping.  I will let you know how it works.
