Holly cow, I just looked at your interior again and realized that your car has the optional factory power window option like my 66 Coronet 500 has! Welcome to the "desperate for 66-68 power window parts club" my friend! Are all 4 windows in working order?

I must have lucked out.. These babies are all working and now that you tell me the parts are rare I might stop using them!!!!

First of all, I must tell you that you have one beautiful Coronet there, but as Rich (ws27) and Jeff (theman440) will tell you, as well as anybody else who owns a 1966, 1967, or 1968 B or C-Body Dodge, or Plymouth car with factory power windows, finding most any power window part outside of the electric motors that were used on these three model year cars, is a very tough challenge indeed, because all of the power window switches and other specific parts used in those three years are all made out of that extremely rare material called "unobtanium", so while I'd highly recommend that you operate all four of those windows on a regular basis to keep them in good operating condition, I'd also highly recommend that you be extremely careful when you or anyone else operates those rather poorly designed window switch tabs, as all that keeps the operating tabs in the center position which allows the switch to open and close the windows when pushed up or down, is a small metal spring behind each switch tab and those springs have been in place for well over 40 plus years now, so just handle them with a lot of care, because NONE of the 1966-1968 power window switch parts are being reproduced and used parts won't usually be in any better condition than what you already have. You also really don't want me to tell you what either an n.o.s. 4 gang drivers door master switch, or an n.o.s. single gang switch that is used on the front passenger door and both quarter windows are going for these days, IF you can even find them right Rich and Jeff?

LOL, Richard, you forgot to mention that the switch material "switches" from unobtanium to ohmygodallloy when you find out the price.

Amen to that my friend, but I didn't want to freak him out totally!

Richard

You are right on the money Richard...

Wow Tek - that is a nice car, those '15 Chrome Magnums are the perfect wheels for the '66/'67 body. One day I'll get some for mine.

Tek - looking at the photos again your car seems to have some nice options - what else is it equipped with?

You guys are going scare the poor guy

Sorry Andy, but when it comes to 1966-1968 power window system parts, it's every man, woman and child for themselves! You know, I've heard that opposing ebay bidders just go missing in action, never to be seen again when they try to out bid Rich on these kinds of parts! I understand that Rich has also added n.o.s. parts sniffing attack dogs to his security team that can track down an n.o.s. part anywhere in his area! Even Jay Leno is afraid to mess with him!

Gulp......NICE puppy!!!!
