G28 - Simple Mans, Simple REDO of an G28 LP640

[autopro]

Good job on lining up that door, not an easy feat.  Even the door glass on the original Murcielago doesn't roll all the way down, so if yours sticks up it means it's perfect!

Had a ballast or transformer go out in a florescent light over the REDO. The LED replacement is super bright!!! 

Did some trimming on the outer door skin, it is pretty flush with the body.

Going to dyna glass and fiberglass the metal frame to the inner door, then reinstall the power window system.  Ive been plyaing around with the door handle and thinking about how it will function with the W126 latch.

Good job on the door glass, cars look totally different with it on.

Thanks, still have a ways to go on the door!

Nice work.    I am about to embark on my window tracks.  Is your glass suppose to be 2.5" from the sill?

Thanks FC!

The REDO originally came with Saturn Glass which really suxed!!  I think it was 8 inches up above the sill when fully retracted (see picture below).  Was looking around for side glass and found the Murci-Me's G28 glass could not be purchased and started a thread.

Long story short went with OEM glass.

Starting over with a working window track.....  for Way less coin!!

Modified the track, and used the original holder for the glass that came with the car.

When fully retracted about 2.5 inches stick up above the door. 

Still have to make a mount for the motor.

But pretty happy how it came out.

So I spent a lot of time making brackets and installing the track system that is sold by Jose from Spain, I think his user name is lambocars or something like that.

Long story short, The tracks system I received is junk.  I have purchased a few fiberglass parts from him with no problems at all.  Luckily I had a track system that other have used in these cars.  My mistake for not firing up the Jose system earlier.  oh well live and learn

Made the upper frame for the door.

Test fitted the OEM inner sweeper and side channels.

I can see that some adjustments will have to be made steel door frame to get the it all to fit correctly

Footcuuter , Autopro and lambobuilder  thank for the comments and encouragement.   It a battle with these builds as you all know.  Wish I had more uninterrupted time to work on these doors.  All I can grab is an hour or 2 here and there.

Great work. And people wonder why it takes years and exceptional skills to complete these beauties. They have no clue as to what is really involved.  Thanks for inspiration.

Mere mortals would just leave it.  Way to do it right! 

No doubt.

You are really taking your kit to a whole new level.
