Post by: shaved80 on August 12, 2006, 10:43:00 pm: i don't really like the look of that, it's even worse when the windows down! i had my window and vent window out when i was looking for that gasket and it looked horrible

Post by: toplessblazer on August 13, 2006, 09:59:00 am: I think it would be cool if someone would make a kit with a new seal and a solid piece of glass (no hole) to eliminate the vent window from opening. I have never owned one of these trucks without one side or the other (usually both) causing wind noise. I would buy a kit if it were available. I have seen people mount little billet mirrors for motorcycles in the holes where the latch mounts.

By the way how do you take the latch off I want to tint the window thanks!

Title: window
Post by: VileZambonie on August 16, 2006, 01:29:00 pm: I'm sure you could easily have one made. There's a tempered glass right here in town where I work that would make those solid windows or vent windows at probably a fraction of what you'd pay if someone marketed them. Anyway I like the look of the vent windows when they are opening and it's wicked easy to change the seals on these so if yours whistle or hiss you can buy a complete seal kit from Jcwhitney. I would suggest let them sit in the sun for a day or two before you put them on though.

Post by: kimin69 on August 29, 2006, 02:28:00 pm: Hello everyone!!
I would like to introduce our one piece door window conversion for the 1973-1987 Chevy truck bodies.
The kit consists of everything needed to do the changeover.

I would also like to mention the new winshield upgrade for this type of truck. It will completely eliminate the need of that old cruddy gasket. It is flush mounted design including a black bordered edge on the glass that will hide the glue. Included in the kit is a 1/8" accent trim that will fit between the glass and the cavity of the body.

If you have any questions please feel free to visit our website; www.OnePieceProducts.com

Have a Great Day!!

Title: Pix
Post by: VileZambonie on August 29, 2006, 05:37:00 pm: How about some pix. One picture wouldn't convince me to spend $750 on 2 windows. Does it open all of the way?

Post by: roundedline on August 29, 2006, 05:47:00 pm: Is this Ben Tapia? I have been trying to contact you about carrying these since I heard you had them and I haven't heard from you.

Post by: SUX2BU99 on September 02, 2006, 11:37:00 am: ^ Really? You get that onepieceproducts kit? I really like the look of the 1 piece window. I recall on here a few months ago that it seemed to be that nobody offered it and voila! here it is.
Title: Re: Pix
Post by: shaved80 on September 02, 2006, 12:01:00 pm: i think he means his 91 as in an OBS, not a blazer or sub. and that's because a few months ago nobody DID offer them!
Title: Re: Pix
Post by: RSBAD454 on September 03, 2006, 12:11:00 pm: Yeah sorry.....my 91 is a 88-98 pickup body style. 88 pickups went to the one piece design.

Post by: kimin69 on November 08, 2006, 01:20:00 pm: I was just recently at the SEMA show in Vegas and to my suprise there was our kit on one of three trucks of that body style in the whole show!!
The builder was Hill's Hot Rod's from Texas and I had a brief discussion with the owner.

As far as the winshield upgrade we should be releasing it around June of 07'. As far as the price goes for the upgrade it should be between $200-300. I don't have any pictures yet.
We are releasing a one piece kit for the 64-67 & 68-72 El Camino in February of 07'
If you go to our website there are more pictures of different trucks with our one piece door glass kit: www.onepieceproducts.com
or reach me @ (888 ) 663-7763
If you would like to see the pictures of the truck I saw at the SEMA show just email me thru our website and I'll be happy to send them to you!!

Thank you for your comments!!

Post by: leghumpingjihadkiller on December 09, 2006, 07:38:00 pm: Does that kit come with new regulators, or are new ones even required? If they are required, do you offer a power window option?
Title: Re: 73-87chevytrucks.com now selling One Piece Products.
Post by: roundedline on December 09, 2006, 10:55:00 pm: The kit uses the existing GM regulators (power or manual)? If your truck originally was manual and you want power, I HIGHLY recommend using the factory setup. Due to the high availibilty of salvage yards with 77-91 trucks with Power setups, I would look there for the power window setup.

The kit works with Power or manual setups. If you have factory power locks, you will have to move the lock solenoid down to clear the tract, but it is a simple mod.

Post by: leghumpingjihadkiller on December 09, 2006, 11:27:00 pm: I have neither power windows nor power locks, although I plan on installing both.
Title: Re: 73-87chevytrucks.com now selling One Piece Products.
Post by: roundedline on December 10, 2006, 10:43:00 am: They current version of this kit is not setup to work with aftermarket power window conversions without some serious modifications. Next year they are modifiying the kit to work with them, but currently it is not an option.

As I said before, find a donor and/or get the factory setup, and you won't have issues.
