Default power windows for a C1

Does anyone know if someone sells the original style reproduced power windows motor and any other related parts for a 62?
Thanks,
Wade

Corvette America sells all you will need but be prepared to pay big $$$s!

The repro motors and switches alone will run more than $600!

In a recent issue of Hemmings Motor news there was a lengthy article on power windows. One of the interesting points was the statement that virtually all GM power window motors from the fifties to the eighties are interchangeable. I have a 62 vet and the motors in it look just like the ones I took out of a 64 Buick Riviera. Might be an avenue to explore. Bob

Default power windows

Thanks guys, I was thinking that it might be easy to convert manual windows to power windows but after reading "The Corvette Restorer". I see it is not an easy job. Guess I'll just keep my manual windows.
