I'm sorry this is late but there was a request for more pictures of the sliding rear windows. While I had the camera out I got some pictures for you guys...

sweet..............................drool.................................those are so cool.

frenchblue72 I think that they were an aftermarket item

Those are a little different than the type I've seen before. The one's I've seen only had one window that slid forward. Very cool though. They would be nice up here in the land of the rain (well, every year except this one).

I have not seen that type of slider before either. It's built like a rear camper window for a pickup. I like it!!

if you look at my top picture the back part angles back, trucks are not like that?
If you look real close on the glass where I took a picture of the writing you can see it says 1975, I think they were just an aftermarket item way back when, from looking real close at it I do not think is was home made.

I know a guy in Colorado that has the exact same setup on his Blazer. His is the only one I've looked at in person but have heard of others. I believe it was an aftermarket deal when people realized these have no air circulation! Also why so many rear hatches are broken because people use to drive with them propped open to get the air moving through.

It clearly isn't a truck rear window, but it is set up like one. Very cool. I'd love to get a set for my hard top. Like J. Lance said, there is no circulation back there. I've got a soft top for the spring and summer, but every now and then, we get a nice spell during the winter (suppose to be up to 65 by friday!).
