5 window conversion from Ch#@&y?
I hope this link works? Go to page 43?

Has anybody done a 5 window conversion on an F1 or F100? I wonder if it would work?

As for why? The problems of the world cannot possibly be solved by skeptics or cynics whose horizons are limited by the obvious realities. We need men who can dream of things that never were and ask "why not?".(John F. Kennedy)<<Sorry, I couldn't resist!

Stick with the "why" question...asking "why not" will drive you insane!
Goes back to the old saying, "just because it can be done doesn't make it right".
A better question to ask is, "can a FORD BBW be installed in a Chevy 3100 1st series", now you're talkin' about something worth doing.

Hey, I'm all for customizing......I do it for a living. Some things just don't look right to me though. Kinda like those cars with the huge DONK wheels.....Boggles my mind why anybody would do that.
Dodge also had some corner windows in the 50's.....they were smaller though.

Well, we put Chevy engines, transmissions, and alternators, Chevy steering columns, Chevy suspensions, and Chevy rear ends in them so why not Chevy windows?

I say go for it, and while you're doing it swap the body to a S-10 frame and stuff a HEMI under the hood.
Hey, if you're going to post something that will raise the hackles of the FTE group you might as well go for the trifecta.

Because everything that you said has a legitimate, rationale reason for it's use...can't think of one reason for making a Ford truck look like a 5-window Chevy.
