As far as the window see either local glass guy or check with auto city classics. The might have just that piece.
Is your regulator totally gone?
If not take it out and see if it can be cleaned up and saved

I'm sure they just left off the biggining letter..."d". (driver side) That one wasn't too hard, but I do see some that just have to be chalked up to English being a second language for them. I admire people who can speak multiple languages. I can't.
I can do this, I can do this, I, well, maybe

Jim;  I do have both left and right regulators unused since the 70s.  Have a good RH window  frame assy., glass has bullet holes.   Tom.

Is the window regulator assembly the same for all '57 models? If not, which models interchange? IF you know.
Thanks

I don't have a Ford body parts book but I think that 51A  63 and 76 use the same regulators.  Two door hardtops and convertibles with framed glass.  Tom.
