Title: ? bout a Replacement Window... Anyone know a good online retailer?
Post by: 87ChevyR10 on November 30, 2010, 07:10:33 pm

1st post, so hello all you 73-87'ers! I own a 87 R10 as you can probably guess by the name. Longbed, 305tbi. Sweet truck, and in the process of fixin up. Will have some pics soon.

I'd go to the junkyard, but im not sure what would fit my 87 R10. Shortly after getting banged up, my passenger side window got busted out and its been covered with plastic ever since. If I take the junkyard route, what passenger windows out of what year/model trucks would have the same dimensions and be interchangeable with mine?

If I went the new route, anyone know a place to get replacement windows cheap?

Thanks in advance and I look fwd to sharing Chevy love with you all.

Glass gets brittle over time so i would go the new route if i was you. Not sure about where you can get them.


Edit: And welcome from Ohio.

you'll need 81-87 glass.  the earlier glass (73-80) is thicker and will bind in the weatherstripping.

It is going to be cheapest to get it from your local glass shop...

Thank you guys for the replies! I'm sorry i didnt immediately reply, but for some reason, i never got the email notifications.

Yeah i was thinking safelite autoglass or something along the lines, instead of used, but, was hoping someone new a place online who retails aftermarket replacement windows.

TY 4 the replies and i'll have pics up of my longbed box soon!

No prob. When you do look for parts, go to the top of the page and click on the banner.

If its not there, ask. He has more parts than what is listed.
