Re: 53 chevy truck want 50 style one piece window

Man, I just spent some time digging through another forum where I know this came up before. I had thought briefly about doing it on my 54. Couldn't find the thread thought. I'll dig again later.
The bottom line was that it is "doable" but, it's not a 1-2-3 thing. It'll take a lot of work..per the "sperts".

I think you can just change out the doors from a 47 to 50 or 51.
