definetly go with the 57 if you can. looks like it could use to be lowered about a foot or so. cant tell which rear window it has. the small rear glass is cooler.

yes, thats a small rear window. that is easier to chop than the large one ( those wrap around the sides of cab). i get some more current pics to post next week. looks like you will have a fun project. i have this truck and a 71 firebird.


an good idea to go with different color than pink . nice photoshop'n
