Your brother should be proud...That is better than GM could have done...perfect radius on the X-cab window...my hat's off to him...

Can't wait to see it finished!!!

WOW.. All this talk about extended cabs and crew cabs.. I had to dig out a picture of my first attempt at doing one about 10 years ago... I used a 133 inch wheel base Long Horn frame.. with a short bed... cut off the cab directly behind the door and moved it and the rear mounts back.. then welded in a Suburban floor and also used the Suburban roof which is taller than the trucks.. then used a window out of a late 80's Ranger.. I was okay with the stretch part.. But the window treatment still did not look right to me.. Oh well.. A buddy of mine loved it and ended up with it... Drove it for a few years.. then sold it.. It was last seen in Puyuallup WA a couple years ago.. Has any one seen it lately??... Would be cool to have it back.. Try a different window and turn it into a 4X4 Dually..

I will admit that for an actual crew cab the Gold and White one is in my opinion way cool..
But for the club cab look... Wow.. I really like your brothers windows the best .. it matches the rest awesome..
