    I've got a flat top Pete with the factory back window. Anyone seen or know where to find a replacement back window? Looking for one that slides or opens up with a screen to keep the mosquitoes out. I don't have A.C. Never idle less it's cold cold. I had a light bulb moment last night while deciding if I should cook to death or die of blood loss. I've never looked close if anyone else has one.

    Not to change the subject but do you have screens for your cab windows? You have a 379 right?

    Yup it's a 379. I've seen those you put in the door windows. Never found where to get them. I always thought it would be nice to have that back window, but about all it's good for is to wake you up on a cold winter night when you roll into it. I was thinking of putting the jail house bars in my head rack and trying to put a slider with a screen in the back. No one could get in with the bars on the rack. It would sure suck to forget it open in the rain.
    Are you going to make it to the moon Lake pull this year?

    Those screens you can get to roll up in your door windows can be bought at the Iowa-80 in Walcott and the Oak Grove 70 in Oak Grove, Mo to name a couple places you can get them. At the Iowa-80, they are actually priced cheaper than they are on the manufacturers website.

    I used to drive a 379. I think I still have the screens I'll look this weekend. If I have them they are yours. I'll have to see if I have any shows the weekend of Moon Lake. If not I'll try to get over there. Either way I'll figure out a way to get them to you if I still have them.
