| | | | Joined: Nov 2006 Posts: 677 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Nov 2006 Posts: 677 | I would like to remove the vent windows on my 51 and switch over to a one piece window I know that the 47 thru 50 had a one piece. Will the windows & tracks & regultors fit in my doors OR does anyone know of a kit ?
Thanks
Todd

This would have to come out. The sheet metal on the sill of the doors is different with the vent window door because of a tab which holds the vent window latch. The inside window frames are slightly different as there is a notch cut out of the vent window model frame. Of course the glass is different. IMHO it would be easier to change the whole door if you have access to them. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 684 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 684 | Try to run a search on this subject, as I remember it being discussed before.
And I belive it involved considerible work to make this switch. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 88 Member | | Member Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 88 | A place called nu relics sells a power window kit that will eliminate the vent window. Here's the link to their site: http://www.nu-relics.com/ct47_50_2.html hope this helps | | | | | Joined: Dec 2003 Posts: 2,953 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2003 Posts: 2,953 | Still would take some modification to the door. As I wrote they are not quite the same. | | |
