Why would you want to do this? Power windows are just one more thing to go bad.

If you want a factory installation, purchase the 1979 assembly instruction manual (AIM), study the assembly diagrams, put together a parts list, and start putting the parts together. All the required hardware is available in the aftermarket, eBay, or swap meets.
