Re: One piece door window kit 64-66 Chev truck?

I've only seen one but I can't remember where I saw it. It's hard because both edges of the widow slope in. This company used a deep window help stablize it. I'll try to find it but no promises.

You beat me by 7 minutes. That's what I found too.
But I'm not sure these are the windows that I originally talked about.

But I may have jumped the gun; here is a previous thread:

Re: One piece door window kit 64-66 Chev truck?

The shape of the window in the picture looks wrong. It's probably a stock pic, not specific to 64-66. Let us know what you find out from no limit

Re: One piece door window kit 64-66 Chev truck?

I'm pretty sure those are just generic window pictures. It looks like they used the same pics for all the windows.

Re: One piece door window kit 64-66 Chev truck?

The reviews/feedback that I've read indicates that the Nolimit one piece conversion lacks in fit and quality. I believe there is a place that sells just the one piece sized glass if you want to fabricate your own. I'll see if I can find info on who/where to get the glass.

Edit: OK this is the thread I was thinking of.....

http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...1&postcount=89

and doing a quick search this appears to bewhere he got his glass....

Re: One piece door window kit 64-66 Chev truck?

Here is the one piece glass completed in my 66 truck.
http://www.nolimitparts.com/prodinfo...umber=GLS-6466

Worked well, but if you want to attempt this you really need the tools and patients. Lots of installing, removed, and sizing, etc.
I reinforced the door with extra metal, after I removed the metal under the wing window so the full glass would fit. I also added alignment piece from a ford truck so the window would align in the felt correctly. Custom felt was cut to fit inside and out after windows were installed. See the pictures.

Latest issue of classic trucks has a members truck 64-66 with one piece windows. I can get the members name when home and pass it on.

Re: One piece door window kit 64-66 Chev truck?

I bought a kit and decided not to install it in my truck. It looked a little too involved for my skill set. I will give you a deal if you want the kit. It has the glass, felts, brackets etc.

Let me know.

Re: One piece door window kit 64-66 Chev truck?

I had a brief discussion with a guy that had an incredibly nice 66 at a car show. The truck was a full on custom from top to bottom. His exact words regarding the one piece windows was don't do it, that was by FAR the most difficult thing they did to the truck.

Look to New relic, actually I think it is Nu-Relic, they make power window kits for all vehicles, maybe they have what your looking for.

Re: One piece door window kit 64-66 Chev truck?

Not to start a argument but man I would not give up my wing vents for anything, I do like the way the solid window looks but the wing vents really to provide a lot of air when driving and I like resting my arm on the sill and cruising down the road.......good luck on finding the kit. Kieth

^^^ I agree, I like the look of the vent window honestly, and it serves a good purpose on these old trucks...

Re: One piece door window kit 64-66 Chev truck?

I talked to a body shop and was quoted $1000.00 per door to do one piece glass and power option on them.

$2000 can do a lot more on a truck build, but I have to say that I LOVE the look.

Re: One piece door window kit 64-66 Chev truck?

I always liked the clean look it brings, but I think I would miss the wind they can pull in too. I had a couple of old VW bugs I wanted to do that too, but never got around to it.
