Another big window conversion

A guy here in town heard of my conversion and looked me up, he wanted info to do his. I gave him all the pointers I knew and sold him an inner panel.... He was very hesitant at first and actually came by several more times looking at mine.

Well he did it and I must say it looks better than my first attempt. He still needs to weld it in place and do some grinding/finishing on the opening but it looks nice!

Re: Another big window conversion

How do I do this? In a 63 small back window. I have a 73 big back window and cab at my disposal.
