lol crap I've gotta get on it!
Went to Outback today to get mostly everything I'll need for the internals of the doors including vent window parts. I've decided to try and rebuild my original vent windows because repops are $$$$$$...plus I've heard you can't get ones that are true to '67 (glass is different).
About to go try my luck with these vent windows..........let's see how this goes

Re: Project: 1967 C10 Small Window

I found out that my driver's side larger bracket needs to be modified because it does not clear the ps box...but yea. I'm pretty excited.

Picked up some steel door panels from Outback today. I'll probably upholster them to match whatever I do with the seat, but I'm also thinking about painting them red...
I've been removing the undercoating from my bedsides with a wire wheel and it is probably one of the more fun things I've done....................1 down, 1 to go.
Like I said, all side glass should be in today so I'll put up those pics later.

Thanks man! It's lining up alright for the most part. Driver side is a little low so I might shim it up? We had to shim up the core support a tiny bit for the door gaps to be right and the grille and chassis are even from side and so are my bumper brackets but for some reason it's still a little low...You know what the really weird part is? The driver side of the bumper measures as being 1/4" higher than passenger side......

Thanks I think so too! I probably sat out there and just looked at it for 30 min.

Thanks! Well the doors are turning out to be a little trickier than I had hoped...I had taken pictures of the whole process taking them apart but cannot find those anywhere. Here are some pictures of the mostly completed driver vent window. We've decided to put the glass in after they are both installed. My dad's gone with the before pictures on his camera so I'll post those up when he gets back.

Also got the other bed panel cleaned of the undercoating and notched out the bumper bracket to clear the ps box.
Can anyone tell me if the vent window or other window should go in first??

Re: Project: 1967 C10 Small Window

looking good, I am anxious to get started on mine. I have a anniversary one, but already started om my 70 y/o mom's 1984 trans am. I miss driving my old truck, The first time I drove it I was 15, I am one of the few people that cannot say I wish I had my fist car. It took over 14 years of searching to find it again. Getting registration is going to be fun. Most people do not remember that a car did not require a title until 1973.
