Need a drivers side door with manual window regulator for 1979 El Camino. Prefer no moulding, but will consider anything.

have extremely bashed drivers door from a "U" turn directly into me. Go figure. Have been paid from the insurance and am o.k. for now. No real rush.

I'm going to have one that's not too bad in a couple of months. I bought a pair at a junkyard and they are going to the body shop. When I get them back I'll have my orignal doors. The passanger door is shot but the driver door isn't too bad for a northern car. It doesn't have glass. I need the glass for the new doors.

Is there a lot of rust? What dollars? I can move my glass.
Manual crank?

I'll have to check the rust situation again and let you know. I don't think it's too bad. Some seam rust and some outside serface spots but let me check it good when I get home, maybe some pictures.

FYI/ 2 door Malibu's use the same door. Only difference is the glass. 8) Availability and price is better than searching for El Camino parts! :lol:

I have both driver and passanger doors with manual cranks, with glass. Bought new doors with power windows for my restoration. Call me at 269-719-6194. Some rust but price is right.

My thanks to everyone that offered to help me find a door. After months one turned up at a local yard.
