Can someone please help confirm if I'm crazy or not?
I've removed window cranks before using a rag or the tool or a pick. This is driving me crazy though. I cannot locate the clip, I'm thinking maybe they are from another car and loctited on the splines?
Any help identifying the cranks helps please and thanks.

Re: Window winder/crank removal
Is it possible the clip broke and a piece of it is jammed inside the handle/on the splines?
Maybe lightly tap the handle in (pushing it on) and see if something drops out. Use rubber mallet or soft face hammer.

Re: Window winder/crank removal
I just tried removing mine and it was impossible. I removed the clip and tried using everything. To the point that I bent the regulator. I used a hack saw and cut off the arm. It was the only way to remove it. I then removed the regulator and had to put it in a vice to remove the remaining piece with hammer and flat punch. That's how hard it was to remove. It looks like there was some heavy duty glue in there. Anyways, I had to get it out, now I need to get a new window arm. I straightened the regulator and it works fine... Off to paint soon.

Damn … That sounds like someone used JB Weld on it.
Wonder what other surprises await?

Under Eliza's [rior ownership, the 'restorer' epoxied the passenger door handle to the register.
