New Single Cab Conversion Project Thread

[54inches]

Well, I was thinking I should start a new thread.

Here is the starting place:

This is what it looked like when I got it. Nice and clean.

The window removed.

The top with the window removed.

Window Measurement.

Close-up.

Can someone go out and take a meassurement of their back window on a regular Truck, so I can make sure of the interchangeability.

It looks slightly different than what I see on JC Whitney and LMC, so who knows?

 

[obijuan]

my 87 window is around 52 up top and 62 down bottom.

 

[54inches]

Yeah, I am looking around and they might have used the earlier 67-72 style rear window or maybe the 60-66.

Going out to look for a part number or brand name!

Wish me luck.

Thanks Obi!

It's a dodge, went back re-read the other thread.

I am a dumby, but now I have to find out what dodge!

 

[54inches]

75 1/2 - 93 ram.

 

[54inches]

maybe 86-96 Dodge Dakota, but not sure.

Are you having a conversation with yourself

 

[54inches]

Thanks for your input.

 

[79k20350]

Just teasing man

 

[54inches]

I know.

 

[obijuan]

think you can cut it up to put a fullsize window back there?

 

[54inches]

I have been thinking about that ALLLLLLLLLLL day. Not sure, but it may be something we build into the new one.

I may have to sacrifice "your" topper to experiment! : I really don't like the "dodge" back window as it is shaped weird, but whatever.

 

[obijuan]

you sure you want to cut up the original? maybe sell it back on CL when youre done with it.

 

[54inches]

I was going to sell it to you. If someone has a CHEVY rear window, I would like to see if it would work.

I got a bunch of them, you could just have one. It might be hard to ship though, especially seeing as you could get one local for next to nothing I am sure.

Thanks for the offer and I DO wish you were closer!

Well gentlemen, The lack of time money and too many projects has reached it's apex with me.

I had what alcoholics call a moment of clarity this AM.

I cannot continue with another project, so this wonderful piece of K5 history needs to get gone.

I will put obijuan in line first as he has showed the most interest.

PM me obi if you want it.

I apologize for letting any of you down, but it is just too much.

I am going to start getting rid of some of the stuff I have not used and I am contemplating getting rid of the Suburban all together.

I have a protools bender with a 1.5" die, which is the 2nd thing that needs to go.

Unfortunately, I am not going to ship anything, but could possibly get it to Austin, San Antonio, Tyler or Dallas if need be.

Thanks guys for all of the support over the years!

I am still waiting on obijuan as I am getting rid of the above.
