Awesome work! That aerodyne sleeper is spot on. Love to rear half fenders, that's the kind I was wanting when I built my 379.

Thanks Nate.. The windows are .060 lexan that i cut out the snaded the edges the way I wanted them then used a torch to fire polish the edges shiny again then used the spray VHT tint on the back side..

Thanks Paul! Sounds like a somewhat complex operation. Fire polishing the edges, anyway.

Thanks Paul! Sounds like a somewhat complex operation. Fire polishing the edges, anyway.

Nate all you go to do is use a small torch and heat the edges until they shine and then let it cool and you are done..

Looking good Paul, are you going to put the SLU in this one?

Chris I would like to put it in this truck or a cab over but I have not messed with it and I am not real excited about messing with that SLU.

Hi but what is spray VHT tint for lexan . Mike

Mike it is a plastic or glass spray tint you can use made by Dupla Color it works great if you have the surface oil free and clean and you do it in very fine coats. I have used it on the semis and even on full size cars and pickups to tint headlights and tail lights marker lights and such.
