no back glass rubber?

I couldnt find anything on this subject but can I have a peice of glass cut for the back of 67 so it wouldnt have the rubber seal like on a new truck? The front will be fine, but I was thinking since the back glass is straight this may be an option.

if you could find someplace that could coat it black around it to hide the glue and cut it to leave 1/4" around. it would be an interesting look to say the least. it would probably be really modern looking

Do it! I think it is called "flush mounting" and I want to do it to mine too. I think the big rubber gaskets are ugly as crap.

this is what i would do!!! but instead of coating it black i would just tint the window enough to not see the glue

Re: no back glass rubber?

You'de have to have the tint in the glass. Film tint on the inside wouldn't allow the urethane glue to stick to the window. You could have it etched by media blasting around the outside. Just tape it off so you get a nice straight line. Would be kind of frosted look to it to cover the glue. I think you have to build up the flange though to move the window out to be even or level with the body. Good luck.
