Questions for Dennis.

Dennis, was the factory canopy the same color as the (vent) that is in the top of the canopy ? You can see the NOS vent and the color around the hole thats not faded.

Also, will you do a search for me to see if there's any window and door rubber for the canopy available ?

Thanks Dennis I'll call and order on Tues.
The canopy came off a 1974 truck but I don't know if it was original with the truck.
There's a decal just inside the door on the ceiling with the ford emblem and the numbers PC-730-53562, if that means anything. And it does have the sliding side windows,( WITH the Anodized aluminum trim )

a 74 is not the same as a 78

Then I have to post the proper numbers.



I will be needing more specific info regarding the window sizing as there were different combos available

side window and W/S length
glass thickness
type of door window W/S trim ?

Detailed pics would help
 
Outside diameter of side window seal is 14 Ft
Thickness of side window slide track is .772 In, or 19.62 mm thick
Longest point to longest point of side window opening on the canopy is 74 In.

Outside diameter of rear window seal is 11 Ft 5 In.

Both the side windows and the door have the aluminum trim inserted in the seal

.

Dennis , I can't find anything that can distinguish this canopy from any other. I can't find a build date or find what this number means. ( PC- 73053562 )

Al tough the canopy did come of a '74 truck and it had travel decals in one of the windows from Mexico from 1975.

Another canopy I have has # PC-740-28215, the first canopy is missing that sticker with the number.

So it looks like it's a '73-'77 canopy

Take a photo of the top and post it.
 
I just thought of one differance, The '78 that was original to my truck had the speckle paint all over it.

The other 2 have tha smooth band for paint down the front and along the bottom. Where yours is painted.

Okay the side windows are pre-78

You said you had slider side windows and they show as sliders ?

There were 2 lengths W/S used with sliders
165" and 156 19/32"

What else do you have from the door ?
