Dan,
That's a good looking window! Are these the ones Jim K sells?

Yes Larry, Jim K sells them. Also Gene Dotson and Jim Buchanan sell them.
I have been picking these windows up one at a time for a few years. This one I got used. Traded a set of Tru Tracks for it. These are the first windows. I prefer them over the newer style. Teri and I are finally getting around to installing them. When the next one goes in we must drop the only overhead cabinet up front, replace headliner, which we have, and re do the upper wall around the window. It won't be a one morning job like this one. I spent a good bit of time this morning removing the old sealant from the "new window" so we could run the new stuff around under the trim.

It is true that the first peace of headliner is wider as a 4 feet sheet, but the seccond piece i smaller end there is a beam just ahead of the one where the 2 first peaces meet
I made the seccond peace wider so it end on the next beam from hear a single sheet will be wide enough for the the front piece

Thanks for info on headliner. I will have the photo site worn out before I drop mine. There are some great pics, with detail, there. I like Rob Allen's pics. He did an excellent job with great photos. When doing things like this I wear out that photo site. I hate surprises.
