there is an article on the 69 70 door glass..

i have not personally done 65 .. mustang..  i have done 66/67 fairlanes.. but that was reinstalling a completely stripped door...

everything was out..   regulators.. guides.. wind wing frame.. i just kept pouring parts in till it was complete...

i did end up using some ebay rear door regulators as donors for the winding shaft and assembly.. used small screws to reinstall them...

warning.. the big honking coil wound spring can exert enough force to chop off fingers and perhaps hands.. if you decide to remove the worn winders..

i will have to look through my images.. i think i took pictures..

While this story is on installing the door glass and regulators for my '66, you should be able to use these steps for help in getting the old glass out:
