It's a 124 carcass. But it's regulator-free!

Used regulators are about $45 or so on eBay last time I looked.
You won't fix it short of replacing the rack.
Grease the replacement regularly, they last forever that way, and
replace the channel when it gets shrunken.

For ultimate satisfaction, assuming the sector gear
is steel (don't have a 124, no experience), I'd suggest
taking it out and using a welder to put back steel, then

Mine too, but buying a $350 300E in basically good working order has
driven me to new depths of cheapness for the amusement value and

If you can pull that off and it holds for more than a month I will
personally award you a Jim Cathey Award. In order to qualify, you

How about having an assistant hold the window up while you drive
rubber wedges in at the bottom of the window?

The driver's window in the POS 300E won't go up all the way because
the regulator has about an inch's worth of teeth missing. The motor
and switch are fine---the window just gets to that point and then the
