Thx Steve. Polished aluminum shell.
Gangster rear window is a term used sometimes for the small back window (vs. big back window witch was an option for 67-68 models).

I wanted the small window as it matches the shell window size behind the cab like it was built for it.

No, the tailgate is great. The rot was in the bottom of the front cab wall. I Cut out the bottom 2" of rot, and the top lip off a good donor piece and sandwiched them together so I could keep the patina consistent in the bed....

I decided to to correct the driver side fender dent (too patina).
Also added 8's in the rear for better looking stagger than the 7's.

Not much left to do...I think it's time to sell, stay tuned.
