Single door glass
I know there's a kit to delete the wing-windows on the '67-72 trucks, but I haven't seen a kit for the '80's trucks. Is there such an item?
Thanx

Re: Single door glass
Yes there is one piece products and brothers online truck strore sell them. There web sites are onepieceproducts.com and brothersonlinestore.com. I ordered mine from one piece products and it is fairly straight forward to install the toughest part was getting the window tracks positioned correctly (one my truck anyway.

Re: Single door glass
Yeh the kit is around $700, even more when you get it sent to Canada, but IMO well worth it as it comes complete with everything you need to install (both sides). I believe the costly part of the entire thing is the glass, and when you don't have to spend the time figuring it all out and trying to get the glass made up worth it, after all time is money. I installed both sides and had them working this last weekend. I have a little bit of tweeking to do but it all works good.

Re: Single door glass
brothers was having a sale on their kit for under 300 last i knew.....their kit is good if you want to put a mirror off of that metal piece, and even still if you don't it looks clean.....if your tight with money then brothers is a better deal.

Re: Single door glass
Thanks for the come backs! What do they do about the little jog in your door skin where the wing used to be?
Thanx

Re: Single door glass
the kits that were $300 were Brothers 67-72 kits, not OPP's 67-72 kit.
We sell OPP's 67-72 kit and 73-87(91) kit. http://store.73-87chevytrucks.com/me...tegory_Code=7T The instruction manual with details can be downloaded from the link in the decription of our catalog, or here: http://www.73-87chevytrucks.com/tech...versionKit.pdf
