In this car there is a curious solution to the window winding mechanism. The window winding crank spindle is attached to a small 6 tooth gear, which then drives one of a a larger double gear, the other part has a chain that runs up and down the door, around an idler gear located at teh bottom of the door below.<\/p>\n<p>Luckily, Omicron had made some of these double gears for a B53 restoration &#8211; as no one else had seen these, much less had any. Ours were broken and cracked. Then we found that the small 6 tooth gear (made from pot metal) was broken too, and so we had a couple of those made up locally in steel here as well.<\/p>\n<p>So now all is well, and the door is back together again. Mind you, all these gears are hidden in a welded up assembly, and never seen. They aren\u2019t in the parts book, nor in other Aurelias &#8211; either B20\u2019s or sedans.<\/p>\n<p>From Matteo Zambelli in Italy, arrive these shots of the different window winding systems in B20\u2019s. Its amazing to see the variations.
