One-piece Window Kit (eliminate vent window)

I have a 1973 F100, I would like to eliminate the vent window to get a more smooth appearance. I have seen Chevys with the conversion but haven't found any information on Ford kits. Has anyone done this or know of a place that sells kits. Thanks Guys

i havent seen any of the kits but personally i would keep the wings. they [ in my opion ] give a old style classy appearance where as the one piece would look like all the other modern semi generic windows........

The easiest wat to do this is to rob the insides out of a late model and have a glass shop cut you a piece of glass to fit the truck. There arn't any kits made for anything after 66 I believe.

There is one thing nice about a one piece window... -It eliminates the easy access point to our trucks. Those vent window locks are way to easy to manipulate.

I haven't figured out a way to get the job done yet tho. Any ideas would be welcome.
