Which Vent Window Is Original???? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have two trucks, one driver and one for parts. I went to replace the wing window today, only to find out that on each truck, the passenger side window has the handle on the wing frame, and both trucks have the handle thru the glass on the driver side! Which design is the way that they were made?

Thru glass is 68-72. The other style is 67 only.

Hey Everybody!
I just put a SBC in my 67 using the 6 cylinder mounts, and a TH350 trans that was supposed to be a ""good"" one, but,,,,,,,,yep, it went to lunch before I put it in apparently! So, now I'm supposed to be getting a TH400 for it. What options do I have for the driveshaft/mounting using the 400 in it's place?
I do have a spare set of V-8 mounts if needed and it's getting rodded so I can put what ever in for a crossmember, that doesn't matter.
Please let me know your thoughts, thanks so much in advance.
