Cheep Window
#16
Nope. I usually replaced broken sliders. The one in my 69 had a bad latch, and I had the spare glass in a cab I got. The one in my 72 was smashed at one point, so I replaced it before the rain rotted the seat the rest of the way, the 70 didn't have a back window at all, and the 84 had rust coming out from under the gasket, and I dropped the thing when I pulled it. So, no spares.

Just thought I'd give ya'll an update, I know I know took me long enough.....LOL Anyways, went to Oak Harbor Auto wreaking and got a rear slider window out of a wreaked '88 for $35, took it down to A+ auto glass and they installed it for me. Just to let all you islanders know Oak Harbor Auto Wreaking is bigger then Christians, and has a LOT more Ford trucks, seen about everuthing from early '80s to mid '90s, 150s-350s. They even had sittin in the shop a 7.3 Powerstroke that was talkin to me...LOL But thankfully I resisted the temptation, God knows I couldnt aford THAT perticular swap. Anyways anybody on the island or in the area, thats a good place to go, great people to work with.
