Dave got a new cut! Looking good Dave!
Your a great instructor, thank you.
Very helpful video! I am doing rust repair on my 62, so this panel along with a new roof will help. Sadly some other areas I'll have to fabricate since nobody makes or sells those panels for a 62 yet. A pillar and above the doors inside. Thanks.
Great content! 👍 Keep it up!
You make it look simple.
Honestly, it is far more simple than you might think!
Thanks Dave !
Nice work.
Great videos!!
Thanks for the tips.
Our pleasure!
At the beginning of the video you said you were gonna work on getting this old guy out of here but then you came right back. Another good video even with the old guy.
another good how to video!
Appreciate the comment!
Brother Welch,
You gotta do a 55-59 for us, PLEASE !
We'lll add it to the list!
Hard work Dave, but thanks to an engineer who built the stamping and you for putting in, makes it sound and look easy. Good time to buy a 5 gallon bucket of Vise-Grips. Tech tip; Each manufacturer of panel adhesive has its own working time, cleaning to surface for prep and temperature range. Ask, call or read up on the product you may purchase.
Dave, good explanation! I think “Smoosh” is a technical term.
I have looking for a way to include this word in my daily vocabulary. “Honey, can you “Smoosh” some butter between those pancakes?” That works for me!
Thanks to Dave and Brothers, I already feel smarter!
Thanks for the tip Dean!
I used to ask my wife to crush my beer cans. I think Smoosh is a better word.
@@billknight964 That is one great skill set! As long as she didn’t use her arm pit or knees! I would be sleeping with one eye open though, in a different room!
Always a great learning experience!
Thanks!
How about doing this to a 55 to 59? Also the common rusted out piece between the top of windshield and roof?
Small window looks so much better. Wonder if they have a conversion kit for a Split Window Coupe Corvette too.
What is the glue you use fo the inside ?
Mine has a small window and gonna keep it. It has factory power steering and AC
Can you do a video on the lower-hood patch panel on 63 to 66 Chevy truck
We'll work on that! Thanks for the suggestion.
Do you have any plans for 62 66 front hood patch panel lower Video?
No, but that's a great suggestion! Thanks!
@@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV I think it will help sell more panels and guys can save some money fixing hoods. Every one wins?
What would something like that cost for you guys to do?
We don;t do any work in our shop other than for the videos we make. If you want to get a quote for this type of work please contact Dave Welch at A.R.T. Customs in Riverside CA. 909-489-8646
@@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV thank you guys
@@giovannigonzalez2466 Dave does amazing work! Definitely worth the call.
which is more desirable small window or big window??
It's all personal preference.
@@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV ooh okay because I just got a 64 small window i will be buying parts from you guys soon
Hard to find drill bits that hold their edge
How about 55-59?
Unfortunately no Big Window conversion is available at the moment for 55-59. Keep your fingers crossed!
@@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV I will. Thanks
12:27 Old school automotive trick their flathead screwdriver & a mallet hammer .
Also glad u started this process with a project truck & not one restored cause big window transformation is amazing.
Gotta use what's in the toolbox!
I have a big window cab for sale
I just don't understand why folks don't like the small window.
inexpensive spot weld cutters are not worth it, I found a quality sharp drill bit was much better or spend the money on a high end cutter.
Why do people like to convert from small to big back window? I like the privacy
Is it possible to do a big to small window conversation. It's a 58 and I love the small windows
