    I have noticed you work on a good bit of cars, i was curious about el caminos, and the rare buick gnx's. Of course i understand why there arent any gnxs because of how hard they are to recieve, but i just came across this channel and honestly its a true lifesaver, thank you for being an overall gbody guy and not classified to just one type of gbody, helps everyone wiggle around the differences between the cars.

    Thank you loads. I have a 87 Cutlass 2dr. I started it yesterday and rolled the window down, i had to pull it back up, my dad's idea is it needs lubricated, i thought it was in a bind. I was scared to break the panel and you just helped me a lot. Thank you. Now I'm gonna go find out what's up with her.

    So glad I ran across this video. I have a 78 el camino and I just got new lower door panels. This will definitely help me. I also subscribed as it looks like you have a lot of info on the g body cars. I see you have the 4 speed malibu as well. Mine is a 4 speed too.

    The power window switch normally is wired to the motor I would assume. Your switch must use WIFI or Bluetooth to connect with the motor. Technology!

      MrVigor47 Thanks. I don't have a video on removing a door but the trick is to support the door along the bottom with a floor jack and long piece of wood. then unbolt the door from the hinges and remove the door. Then change the hinges and reassemble. Two man job. Don't try it yourself.

    Hey Brian, have you ever had a car that both rods fell off the outside handles and couldn't get the doors open? I am up against this on my 79 Cutlass. At least I believe that is what is wrong since the doors won't open.

    • @ClassicGBodyGarage
      @ClassicGBodyGarage  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes it is possible or the latch itself has failed. You will have to remove the door panel with the door close and reach inside the door and open it that way.

      There is a window stopper on the bottom of the inner door frame that you have to remove the single 10mm bolt. Then carefully drop the window down and you can then get to the screws to remove the trim felt.

      haha yeah I saw it was a while since you left that comment. Its easy to do. Pull the top and bottom pane off, remove the window stop at the bottom of the door frame to allow the window to come down further and you can get to the screws for the felt trim. Hope that helps for now.
