Hi I have a 1930 Chevy Wentworth. The window regulator has slogged out.
I have fixed the sloppy bit but I have struck a problem with the spring
used in the handle. The problem is I don't see how it works as the
spring is broken and I can't figure out how fits back into the
assembly. Is there anyone who can help me reassemble this regulator
assembly? Thanks

If it were ME, I would take the door panel off the opposite side door.

The regulator in that door should be a mirror image of the broken one.

Thanks, I had thought of that but I am reluctant to do that as the
upholstery is nailed onto the frame and can easily damage if not done
correctly. If I don't have any luck on here then that is what I guess I
will have to do!
