Power window question
Are the power windows supposed to operate when the ignition is off? I have a 61

My '62 does.
When I was a kid my folks had a 1960 Buick Invicta station wagon with power windows, and they worked without the key on. Later they bought a new Caddy and the windows didn't work without the key on. What a pain that was.

In 35 years, when Nowhere Man is our age and some young buck calls him out about reading an owner's manual I hope he remembers this. (He won't)...
Now, what were we talking about again ?
Oh yeah, power windows!
If you have an original setup think about putting some rubber tips over the exposed terminals of that circuit breaker for the windows that sits on top of the firewall. Drop a wrench on those bare, high-current connections and there will be lots of fireworks and poop.

Buy an owner's manual!
Read your owner's manual!
You did buy the AIM, right?!
Have you ever opened it?!
You ever hear of Noland Adams!
It's right there in the CSM, idiot!
