sweet you will need to do a how to now.

people are going to be excited about that!

I personally like the vent windows, but thats because I don't care for air conditioning.

If you can do that up as a kit you would probably make a mint wholesaleing it to the truck parts vendors

i would like this on my 63. it looks much cleaner, though the vent windows are very good.

Holy shhhhhh ---t i know frizzle been trying to get his done, and mark barbe also had that unihinge set up also,and he had problems with getting on piece windows in his truck,i think he ended up putting the wing window back before he sold it

I'll definitely do a write up soon and add it to my build thread. The quick and dirty though is I bought the one piece glass from Vintage Glass in Atlanta and then bought the power window kit for a 55-59 chevy from specialtypowerwindows.com. That kit came with a front guide and already has the pivot element engineered in and I modified it slightly so that i wouldn't have any binding issues. I still have some tweaking to do on the guide alignment and i'll need to do a bit more work on the weatherstripping but i'm pretty happy with the result!

I have not been working on mine for some time, but my design tilts back as it drops just like that. That's the only way to make it work on 60-63.

Nice Bud,

Power windows........ Me and dad discussed doing that to my truck.
He says it's alot of work, but we can do it. You had to take your window channel out right?
So I see you are moving the Door Handles foward and customized it.
Have not seen anyone do that before.
Doesn't look bad.

Very nice! Im going to work on my one piece windows when i get to that point, im with everyone else the vents suck..

[Frizzle Fry]

I like the vents on 4-5-6 and one piece on 0-1-2-3

[scotts62]

Of coarse the hardest ones to do

I like the one piece on all really, after seeing one piece it looks a ton cleaner.. imo

[Heater63]

Is it necessary to suicide the doors to make the swinging one piece work??

I don't have mine apart, just wondering if you need every possible millimeter of clearance to swing it forward and the hinge bolt or door stop might possibly interfere. ???

Anyway, U Da Man for pulling this off

It should work fine with the hinges stock. There is quite a bit of room forward of the window on the '63. If anything the suicide doors complicated the process.
