<VV> Window regulator

[Brown, David]

It may be in the mechanism, but one of the most common causes for this
is worn vertical 'fuzzy' channels.  My 69 cp has been doing this for
some time on & off.  When it does, I take the leverage/pressure off of
the window by tilting it slightly & it then goes smoothly.  I'll replace
them eventually.

Well I finally have my 64 back on the road and a new nagging problem has
evolved.  My dirvers side window is very difficult to roll up and down.
It acts as if the regulator is binding.  I am planning to take the door
panel off inspect, clean and lubricate the mechanism.  I do not think it
has to do with and missing teeth as the binding is not at the same spot
each time.  I can only assume something worked loose and is causing the
problem. Are there any gotcha's that the group is aware of?
