Eliminate vent windows
Hopefully someone out there has already done this. I want to eliminate the vent windows. I will use polycarbonate to replace the glass, but would like to find window moldings, anti rattle mechanism and tracks from an existing application. Anyone know if any of the later model truck stuf will work?

The reason I want to eliminate the vents is this truck is a resto rod style. I would like to lighten the truck as much as possible. The doors are fiberglass, as are front and rear fenders (Step-sdie). The truck has been dropped 3-4"s.
Why? How about just cus I was told it couldn't be done.

I have seen guys to that to their trucks I think in the gallery pics. Can't remember where I saw those pics.
It does look good when you do it. I was just wondering why?

Wasn't that picture doctored? There was another thread recently talking about the same thing. Here's a link to a company that makes conversions but I don't think they have ours yet.

That pic could have been..But not sure, I guess.
I would be a nice option to have if that company ever gets the kits.

Their web site say the kits are coming for the F series. I would sure consider it. I put all new rubber in mine and it lasted for about a year and then the wind noise came back. I finally gave up and got a tube of black silicone and filled all the cracks around those vents. It quiet now. Hopefully nobody will try to open them.
