How many Uni's

Hey guys I have had my 62 Uni since 2000. Seems like whatever ya drive you always look for similer models. I have seen a lot of them. And I tryed to count the ones listed on the post 61-66 regestry this morning but most had no pic's. My ? is How many out there with the wraparound rear window like mine has? I know of only six in the USA. Could ya all list your Uni's? lets see how many are in the club. I luv this site. It's almost as much fun as cruising. Be a paid member in a day or two. Wife can't figger out what's so cool about it and wants ta know why the honey do's aint gettin done. Thanks Guys. Really would like to get an idea just how common the wraparound rear window is.

It would be interesting to know how many big windows were made. A buddy of mine has three uni-body trucks . I am getting the only one worth fixing .It is a 61 with the small back glass , but one of the others has a big back glass . I'm going to cut the top off & graft in the back window . The "good" one has no floor in the cab because someone cut it out to fix another one , so I will be reflooring the cab . Unfortunatley neither of the other two has good floors , so I'm hunting .

Hey I just picked up a 61 shortbed with the wrap around window. Body and paint is done but we stillhave a long way to go. I would love to know production numbers. I'll get my new Baby'spics in my gallery soon.

I found out a little info from Lovefords I'm getting more info But Ford produced 62410 Unit body P/U'S in 1961. If I find out more I'll let you know. Bak

I know there are at least 2 that the big windows were "harvested" from cabs that were beyond repair, and put on 64 cabs. One Ford, and one Mercury. I won't name names, but you might want to ask over at Slick 60s

Luv it Ringo. I pulled the upolstery out of mine to make sure it was'nt cloned. Did Ford make any distinction in prodution #'s on how many wide rears there was. or how many was put on Uni;s
