Gen 2 with Hardtop, I need a power window kit, where to buy one?
The 35 truck kit from FFR came with Ball's Rod and Kustom #Platinum (b-1) power windows. Seemed like decent quality and worked well. I'm not sure this exact fit would be for the 33 hot rod. But they have multiple versions.
Build 1: Mk3 Roadster #5125. Sold 11/08/2014. Build 2: Mk4 Roadster #7750. Sold 04/10/2017. Build Thread
Build 3: Mk4 Roadster 20th Anniversary #8674. Sold 09/07/2020. Build Thread and Video. Build 4: Gen 3 Type 65 Coupe #59. Gen 3 Coyote. Legal 03/04/2020. Build Thread and Video
Build 5: 35 Hot Rod Truck #138. LS3 and 4L65E auto. Rcvd 01/05/2021. Legal 04/20/2023. Build Thread. Sold 11/9/2023.

You will still need the glass from FFR as it is specific to them.

If only someone at FFR would answer the phone... I did get a response back from Ball's Rod & Custom
"If you’re referring to Power Windows we supply them to Fact5 for some of their vehicles"

Do you supply the glass?
We don’t make the glass for them – if flat glass we’d need paper templates to reproduce.
Even if you buy that kit, you don't get any of the FFR specific brackets etc. Call them after 9. They might be delayed due to weather though.

Thanks Mike, I talked with James and his is a GEN 1 kit, I don't know if there is any difference between Gen 1 & Gen 2 but I think he already had someone in line ahead of me.
FFR is on their game today, Nicole FB messaged me, Travis called me and Dave e-mailed me.. Dave's working on putting a kit together for me.
yeah, they were sold, i should have updated that post.

FYI the window kits are the same except for the brackets that hold the regulators in and the plates for the top of the doors. I almost bought Roadracers about a year ago but FFR didn't have the brackets separate and didn't have a set they wanted to break up. I ordered them with my Stage 2 kit.
