Looking for Rear Windshield with frame?
Just bought a REPU Project. I need a rear window. The truck originally had a camper shell and had no rear window. I'm not sure if they originally came with a frame around the window or if ther is a window frame.

Rear Window
They originally came with a solid window held in with a rubber gasket, no frame. The dealers and owners removed the original and added a rear sliding window, still using the original gasket. So you can go however you desire, nice sliders are still available at several places.

Part number TSW1810 for 72-76 courier window fits my 74 REPU perfectly. it is clear glass with black metal frame and metal latch. There is only one gasket for courier and b1600 rear windows, and it is two inches too long for REPU. So you have to cut out two inches and sillycone it together. It was $100.00 + shipping including gasket!!!! On clearance Clarance.
do *not* buy the window that is on their website speced for REPU. It is too tall and too wide. It is part number TSW1319T and does not fit 74 REPU Isn't the 77 repu rear window larger? If so I bet 1319T would fit a 77.

Rear sliders
CRlarwence just gives me the runaround and is extremely difficult to figure out how to buy..you apparently have to register as a customer to find out where they sell the stuff. Who needs that..any other sources?

Did you use CR or express glass? CR is a pain to deal with, but I've sent express an email, hopefully they'll work out.
