Odd rear cab glass
 
5 Attachment(s)
The 77 I just bought has this odd rear glass accessory. PO didn't know any thing about it so I'll let the gurus here help me identify it. I think it is cool in the fact that the tempered glass actually bends in the middle when you unlatch either side. I didn't have any luck googling the letters etched on the lower rear of the glass but hopefully someone can help. Thanks, here's pics of the glass and latches.

They were popular in the 80s, but I don’t remember the manufacturer

Had one on my 83 back in the day. Picked it up at a truck parts store, useless for anything but the cool factor. ;)

Same here. Found that window useless and went back to the factory slider.

Looks like the LeVan Flex-Thru window!

Another reason I took it off was the ease to break into the truck. ;)

Thanks for the help identifying my odd rear glass. I'm going to keep it on as it is unique and I'm sure I'll get a lot of questions about it at shows and cruise ins.

I had one in my 83.5 Nissan and loved it! It is the LeVan Flex Thru!

I'd like to find latch parts for this odd ball glass but I didn't have any luck googling the manufacturer name. Any one having another idea or source would be appreciated

I don't think the company is around anymore but the latch from an extended cab glass or an old Toyota or Datsun car rear side glass might work.
