Power window conversion

I'm new at this so here goes nothing,
I have a '70 f100 shortwheele base pu"my work in progress" I would like to install power windows. Does anyone know if any other pickup or car from ford might have the drive motor and parts needed for this or should I just get an after market kit? I have done alot of work to it so far.It's got a 351 clevland that has been punched out with all the gofast goodies ,bolted to a slightly modefied c4,'72 ac and power brakes,'76 front disc's and rear end"which is 4 inches wider than the one that came with it". I'm about to rebuild an '85 AOD trans. that came out of a donor thunderbird.
I am also having trouble with the tires rubbing the rear fenders when it is under a load. If any one could help on either of these two problems it would be very helpful.Thanks

I think (don`t have in front of me) my 1972 `sales brochure` shows there was a power window option in 1972 (F250)...I have Never seen it installed in any truck i have looked at.
So, maby a ford dealer could be kind enough to find the obscure part # and do a search. At least to verify the option!

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 22-Nov-01 AT 10:43 PM (EST)]I didn't see any listing for 68-72 in this site, but it isn't the manufacturer's site:

http://www.a1electric.com
http://www.a1electric.com/catalog/cat_fordtruck.htm

I think this is the manufacturer: (these guys look the BEST!)
http://www.electric-life.com/electric.htm

Another distributer:

Yet another:

Good luck!
