1954 chevy pickup vent window elimination

Would like to replace window glass with one solid piece of glass - eliminating the vent window. Is this possible?

Well, the 47-51 Chevy "AD" Chevy had no vent wing. So simply putting those doors on your truck would do it. You need the "adaptor" strikers used on 51's with swing handles but you could do that.

Other than that you need the window runs, regulator and inner and outer window trim from the 47-51 and some mods to the door and you are there.
