Thinking about installing power windows

I'm getting older and one of the modern niceties I'd like one on my F-2 is power windows.

I read the post line and thought to myself, Old Bob has lost it. Next thing, he'll be wanting automatic, power steering, power brakes, and air conditioning.
Was I relieved. Power windows in an old truck

Not only has Bob lost his mind, he's lost his taste, too. The inside of his truck looks like a Chevrolet.

I couldn't tell what kind of truck it was but I think the concept is universal.

Maybe next I'll add air conditioning.

Still too much work, I'm getting old and I want to have a few creature comforts in the ol' Ford.
