And, one can generally repair/replace a transmission/engine still for

But it makes no sense to do so for a car that is old, high mileage and
driven where the elements take their toll on the body, electrical
system, suspension, ad infinitum. Similar to that kind of car, the OP
has rotted windows...if he wants to play with tools there is always
Habitat for Humanity. They would be glad to see him.

Eventually, but it probably still isn't the best $$ decision--that would
be to replace w/ used which to make the analogy would be to visit the
Habitat reclaimed store.

As for the OP, there's no indication he has more than one window that
needs some significant repair to the frame and some unspecified number
of panes of glass and a little effort. And, indeed, window-making is
one of the more enjoyable crafts--takes some effort, but w/ a router and
a table, today it's well within the reach of the DIY'er and a sure-fire
self-satisfaction generator...
