Currently undergoing a conversion to vairy nice street car
Rebuilt the Buick 215, dropping compression down to 9.5 to 1 so that it would run on regular gas

Really nice Vair! I like it, and your power train test setup is cool too.

David,

Contact Dusty with NuRelics: https://www.nu-relics.com/Default.asp

When I bought the regulators and motors for all four windows, Dusty stated that he had sold plenty of the front window units but none of the rear units.

With my trial and error input, Dusty was able to tweak the rear units so that they would fit and work properly.

Great product and outstanding customer service.

Here's the video from one of the rear window units
