Re: New Guy
The windows were cut out of an extra cab dodge(late 70's). But because the dodge windows had a slight curve and I wanted them to be flat to match the front glass the windows had to be split(the inner piece from the outer piece). flattened out and welded back together. They were also made 2" taller and 2" wider.

Re: New Guy
That is a work of art! You would think some company would pick up on making extended cabs for people to buy, I mean if they can produce Camaro bodies...
