West Peterson Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 I bought these four vent window gears for my 1940 Packard 180. However, they are not correct (I found out after completely taking apart my door panels and windows to replace them). Does anyone recognize what these might be for? Packard or otherwise? Thanks.

Coley Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 I used to make some like them for 1946-48 Fords. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coley Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Do you just need the gears and not the shafts? The gears are easy to reproduce. Want to send me a gear to check out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filozof97 Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 If one or two teeth are broken, it's easy to repair without making a new gear. I did it with my 120's vent. First of all, drill tiny holes in place of broken teeths. Then put tiny nails in it, bend it 90 degrees and glue/cover with epoxy "welding" glue. When glue dries, simply file it to required shape.

West Peterson Posted April 1, 2019 Author Share Posted April 1, 2019 Correct reproduction gears are available for my needs. I'm just trying to figure out what I've bought, so I can offer them to the right market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
