1 pc windows

Does any know of a company that can make a one piece window for a 1984 F150 driver and passenger side?

You mean to replace both the window and vent window in one unit?

i've pondered this idea from time to time, but to do so would require extensive fabrication, and really, why would you ditch the vent windows??

If you want a truck with one piece windows, why not just buy a newer one. I like my wing vents!

Yeah, man! These new sissy trucks without vent windows aren't trucks at all. They're cars with tall tires.

I do think replacing both windows with a one piece window is a custom job though. You'd have to look at doing something about sealing the window too.

You would also have the problem of reinforcing the doors. There is a section under the wing vent where the inner and outer panels are tied together. That would have to be removed in order for a one piece window to fit. I am not sure that you wouldn't get interference with the door hinges at the front. My truck now has 1 piece rear door windows since I installed the 96 rear doors.
