Next time I drive I'll record. Doesn't matter if I'm accelerating or not once I'm in the 55-70 range. It smooths out at 75. Tranny mount should be tight, but I think now that I've put nearly 2K on it bumped up and down this driveway a few times it wouldn't be a bad idea to check bolts. I can't remember when it started.
I'll dig into the windows one of these days. It's going to be one of "those" projects fixing what someone else "fixed".
If the flex disks were in good shape and the bolts tightened, they
should be good to go. When you say Thud, is this a repeated noise, only
going fast, once and a while throughout the range, or just once when
shifting up or down? I ask, as the the tranny on these cars can thud
pretty well when they're out of adjustment, or there's a vac leak.
There's also a tranny mount that can go out, yet if you just dealt with
that it should be good too.
On the windows, like others have said, remove the panels and see how the
window functions, maybe something is loose and binding inside, needs
lube, or a good cleaning.
