I like them both but having had a Task Force panel I can well relate to the can't see out thing.

I don't think it would be all that hard to convert a panel to a proper burb. Years ago I drug home a very rusty burb so that I could get the window sections and moldings to use to have the right "look" when I stretched my cab and put in a quarter window like the late extended cab trucks have but I have long passed on that concept and think I have most of the stuff for the windows stashed away. It might be easier to buy a panel and find a crusty burb that you can get the window section out of to do a conversion.
