Re: [Chevelle-list] window cranks
Get hold of one of your wife's crochet needles. It has a little hook on the tip and works perfectly. Just hook it inside the clips rounding and pull!! - Original Message - From: rml...@comcast.net To: BOBBY Sent: Sunday, December 14, 2008 3:15 PM Subject: [Chevelle-list] window cranks O k who knows the best method for removing the rear window crank handle.

Re: [Chevelle-list] window cranks
Try a window crank removal tool. It's the right tool for the job. You should be able to find it at your local auto parts store in the help or special tools section.

Re: Re: [Chevelle-list] window cranks
Moultrie, Ga. meet is next weekend and there should be so new ones available there, pretty cheap. Do you want me to get some for you? I have a bunch of old yellowed ones from my 70 Nova and 70 Skylark if you want to try and clean those up. Weather is looking good for Saturday so I can't wait to get there.

RE: [Chevelle-list] window cranks
My shoestrings cost $25. You could get four replacements including tax for under that. Therefore, under a shoestring budget.

Re: [Chevelle-list] window cranks
New ones are about $5 at swap meets, $7.50 catalog price. GM price $22.95 for the whole part. $6.95 for a window crank knob kit. These are Classic Ind. prices. Don't know how you can make something clear that has discolored with age from heat and sun bake, I doubt that it can be done but you never know. I'm not a pureist so I go with the $5 replacments.
