back window

hey guys, how many different rear windows were offered in the 57 - 60 models?, i ask this because i just removed a rear window from a donor 57 f500 i have for my 60 custom cab, but it's a totally different size/shape, when i looked closer it's the same as my 53/56 f100's, the 60 isn't a big window so what gives?, is this an AUSSIE THING OR DID THEY DO THIS OVER THERE ALSO?

I think they did it here too. My '57, which I had when I was 16 (back when polyester was popular), had that window.

Somebody else mentioned this, but I never gave it much thought. Okay my 1960 small window measurement is 45x10(roughly). -4speed

You mean the corners of the glass? They are rounded. Maybe I mis-understood what you asked. -4speed
