Fellow Bolters... I am looking to remove the vent windows (as replacements are approximately $300.00 each) from my 1951 Chevy 3100 doors and replace with full size window glass. I've had a couple of people mention to me that they've seen trucks where this was done but I don't have any detailed information as to the steps required. I know that I would need the steel casing that goes around the full size window glass (not sure where to get these) and I know that I would have to cut out the small steel plate where the 51 vent window attaches in the window opening. If anyone has converted their 1951 truck windows from vent windows to full glass windows I would very much appreciate the details of how it was done. Looking forward to reading your responses. As always, I sincerely appreciate the feedback and support. I am about 2 years into my project and hope to finish within the next month or so! Thanks in advance.
