In Sept 98, there was a discussion of one-piece door glass for the TF
trucks. I'm curious, now 2 years later, if anybody has purchased one of
these kits. I saw one on a truck here in Tulsa at the Hot Rod Power Tour
but was unable to find the owner to discuss it with him. Here is my
original msg:

There was a brief discussion sometime ago about the new one-piece door glass
kits for the 55-59 trucks. These kits are sold by NoLimit and Brothers
(probably the same kit). At the time no one had any experience with them.
I was wondering if anyone has seen one of these kits installed yet and how
well it worked. Jim Forbes commented to me once that the custom one-piece
window glass jobs he ever saw were a mess. They didn't work right, or the
glass wouldn't go all the way down or it had to stay up, etc. I have also
heard that the stock mechanism (non-power) is not strong enough to hold up
the one piece glass. So if anyone has any info to shed on this I'd like to
hear about it. -Bob
