What window cranks work with cage?
I just put a Safety Devices roll cage in my 930 and the front bar is in the way of the window crank. I've seen photos of some cars with short window cranks. BB2?. Where do I find them or am I better off converting it back to power? Thanks.

The only ones I've seen were custom made.
I've got a custom cage so close that even shorties would not work. I tried R sytle straps for a while, but have gone back to the stock '71 setup. Coming up to tolls I have to open the door to roll the window down. Power regulators weigh a lot less than you might think, it may be the easiest solution.

I posted a reply here, and it disappeared?
KevinP73 at Automotive Innovations and Restoration used a grinder to shorten the metal and plastic parts of the crank arm, and then drilled a hole to add an aftermarket knob (the kind they sell at auto parts stores). It works great, and isn't as heavy as a motor, or as much trouble as a leather strap. ![]()

Cute crank Jack. I'll shorten mine and see how it works. Thanks for the replies.
