Who knows a quality electric window motor rebuilder

Looking to find someone who rebuilds the power window motors for 67 Olds that does a good job. Not the crappy ones that are bought from the parts stores or vendors.

If you have first hand experience with a good builder please provide me their contact information.

Thanks
Larry

Larry these window motors look alot like the headlight motors on my 65 Vette. I know they can be bought rebuilt or new. My thought is contact someone at Zip Corvette, Ecklers, Mid America, or Yogi Bairs Corvettes. The first 3 are big box Corvette resto houses, i have used all, but im down on Ecklers because of the Chinese crap i got last time i ordered from them. I was Very pleased with Yogi Bairs service and very friendliness on the phone. They may be able to direct you to who rebuilds these motors. Hope this helps.

If you have a local alternator rebuilder they may be able to help you out. In the Phoenix area we have a shop called gen star and I had him rebuild my motors at about $50 each

Thanks for the info guys. I am not looking for a vendor who sells "rebuilt" motors. Have had enough of that garbage. I am going to try a local rebuild shop. Wanted to know if anyone has had theirs rebuild with success and by whom.

Very specific please

Thanks
Larry
