blazer back window in reg cab?

Anybody ever do it, see it, hear of it, or think of it. After I move my tank, I'd like to have a roll down back window in my truck.. well, maybe I'l get it driving first, maybe even today.

Are you talkin about taking a second gen blazer roll down window and intergrating it into a 67-72 pickup cab?

or if not the window at least the concept. I was thinking of getting a mechanism and getting a glass shop to cut a window that would look reasonably original.. I know it would be a nightmare project. Just wondering if anyone has actually ever done it?

Don't know how it was done, but the Blazer that has been in Hot Rod, built by John Buttera has a power rear window. It is the Black on Top, Silver on Bottom with orange stripe one.

the window track and motor assy would be pretty easy to do the real nightmare is to figure out how to seal the bottom up and or building a drain for water leakage

I've seen kits for the 67-72 pickups to make them power. Not sure where anymore though.

Ford did this to their BigFoot trucks. Maybe you could pirate it out of that.
