It looks like you do excellent work and if randy is behind you there's no question. My concern is that I want to stay away from "new" glass and stick to Sof-ray. In any case, ill hit you up in a few weeks. Thanks

I can do them with your original Sof-ray glass if they are in good condition. I have no source for Sof-ray at this time.

I just finished several sets of vent windows if anyone is still interested.

**yote1234** · 07-31-2013, 02:04 PM

GobbleStalker · 07-31-2013, 03:24 PM

Is the soft ray the green tint? That is what is in mine currently.

**70STOVEBOLT** · 07-31-2013, 04:23 PM

How much would you charge for restoring my vent windows, keeping my original glass?

I purchase the vent window glass from LMC Trucks. It has the same tint as the original ones.

We charge around $425.00 and up to do a set based on condition of the vent windows we receive.

Please keep in mind that I do work a full time job so I do these when I have time. It takes around 3 weeks for the chrome plater to re-plate your original parts. Based on my schedule I will need another 2-4 weeks to break down, clean and restore your windows. If this timeline is not a issue I will do them.

I did, one of our mechanics even commented on how well they were packaged

How much to do a black set Roger?

67ctener · 01-09-2014, 04:18 PM

Wow beautiful job I will keep in mind when I'm ready. Do you have sets ready to ship if a core is sent to you. Do you have any with clear glass?

69-72 · 01-09-2014, 07:29 PM

I might be interested in a black set as well

I'll check and see what powder coating will cost to do a black set, because a painted set scratches to easy.

I build them when I have time, so I never know what I have in stock. I can do a set in clear glass, but only on request. Most people want tinted.

**DeadheadNM** · 01-11-2014, 12:43 AM

Roger, the pics show pop rivets on the division bar below just below the window. To clarify, are you using OEM style rivets for the rebuild or pop rivets? Thanks, Pete

I use both styles of rivets. At the top and bottom I use pop rivets for 2 reasons. The first it is a tighter fit, and we have the clearance for fitment.
I use oem rivets on the vertical weather strip as did the factory so the glass will clear when closing.

Thanks
