maibe you need to iliminate the spoiler thingy in total cut it of the roof and replace it with a front part from another 65 truck turned around , that gets a smoot roof all the way to the back and you get a piece of driprail all around , you prolly need to put some metal under it to close the gap to the rearwindow

looked at the picture again are you in for some fabricating ? use a front windshield in the back too

That's the next thing I was going to try. Bring it all the way to the back, and blend it in. The other idea you have sounds good, but I have so much more I want to do to the truck. Besides I wouldn't change the basic look of the roof. I like that bump, and the way the roof over hang's.

Strodder · 08-18-2009, 02:42 PM

Here is is. Back to my original idea.

That's it!! This is the final. No more screwing around. I like it.

Strodder · 08-18-2009, 02:44 PM

I have to weld up the bottom of the rail to make it match the front part. Then a final skim coat.

daverod · 08-18-2009, 02:51 PM

Looks good.

Sure you don't want to mess with it some more.

I forgot to mention that I used part of the A pillar to form the new drip rail that I just made.

thats what mine looked like when I removed them. I still have not decided what to do about the drip rail...
