Love the build… I see you have the single window in the doors. How is the function and quality of the kit? What kit did you use? What size wheel and tires are you running?

No i don't have 1 piece windows. I still have to buy all new windows and gaskets then install them. I have to reinstall all the interior, the rest of the exterior trim and then finally get a spray in bed liner. I will have to check the tire size but the front wheel is 22x 8.5 rear 24x9.

Every color I used was a 1983 GMC factory color. I was going to do one piece Windows but I changed my mine for a couple reasons. I didn't get the windows in time for the necessary body work to make them look nice and I like the look of the vent Windows. The only negative for me on vent Windows are the noise but. I guess I will just live with that.

Front tire size 235/30R22
Rear tire size 275/30R24
