Haha naw the tundra is too new to find a whole back panel and window, Id be fine with the sliding glass

C.R. Laurence used to make a power roll-down rear window for trucks, including mini-trucks. However, they were discontinued about 15 years ago.... I used to have one in my '84 Toyota Xtra Cab, but sold the whole truck a while back.

Maybe you could find one online somewhere?

TruckFortySX · 01-22-2006, 01:39 PM

It is actually glitter on primer, lol. Used some clear to create a tacky surface and sprinkled away....

Oh, ya, that fender IS crinkled.....it's not the paint that makes it look that way. haha

philly blunt · 01-22-2006, 04:46 PM

alexchanman · 01-23-2006, 12:15 PM

i would like to seem some pics of the bed as well as the rear too.

kookoo4kouki · 02-07-2006, 01:24 AM

i too am in the works of a sil-camino as you guys call it...i had a question though...the hatch gets cut but if you look where the body should be flat for a pick-up looking sqaure edged bed like in the pic of the brown one, the body is rounded and has contours that i cant figure how to work with...an idea i thought of for the rear window is to cut the back wall with window out of a truck. lol...then cut it till it fits...thanks guys

quite a few have asked me what the thing weighs. I had not weighed it until yesterday. It weighed out at a *rough* (+/- 10lbs.) 2500. Not sure out distribution, yet. I will get it on a set of scales soon. Here's a pic of the insidde of the "cab", lol, for those that have wanted to see the interior. Oh, ya, some a@#hole thought he'd be smart and try to break in......hence the sheetmetal panel in the slider.

Oh.....curious what *normal* fastbacks weigh.....full interior, etc. Has anyone actually weighed theirs that would care to chime in? Thanks, guys. _Late_
