I just got rid of one of those regulators at hershey, one of the boys from Lang's bought it for his book he is making about the 23-5 coupes. Hope this helps.

Re: Help on 24 coupe door glass channel
Thanks Joe!
Does anyone have a picture of the channel the glass would sit in and how it attaches to the register post. That post is round.
If I can’t find the channel how would you make one and what features would you need? I have some thoughts on how to make some but I’d love to hear from folks that are better at fabricating than me. Thanks for any help.

Re: Help on 24 coupe door glass channel
If anyone can help that would be great. Without knowing I suppose that it’s just a channel with a round boss welded on the center of the channel with a slightly larger OD as the round post on the register as in the 1st picture I attached & the felt window channels on either side of the door window helped keep the glass in position so it didn’t go crooked & get stuck. Any thoughts or help? Best John

Re: Help on 24 coupe door glass channel
I think you are on the right track John. While this is a different style I would think the glass channel would be the same. It has a short open channel below the main channel. If the post on your mechanism had a round spool rolling on it that fit in that open channel it would lift it right up.

These channels the vendors sell might work if they were the right length for your glass.https://cdn.modeltford.com/i/c/1510775l.jpg

Thanks Rich, if I can’t find a pair I guess that’s what I’m going to do. Best John

Re: Help on 24 coupe door glass channel
Joe, thanks for asking, we don’t have the glass channel for either door. Let me know what you have and I’ll email you.
Thanks John
