I'm a newbie but I tried the window channel installation using felt channels I bought on eBay from some outfit in Singapore. They were junk. I think I used contact adhesive to place them in the channels but they worked out. While trying to work them back in they tore and I ended up yanking them out. I'm now driving around with my windows rattling. I wonder where I can find quality channel guides that fit.

It looks like a keeper to me. I have a '75 that I purchased in '76 used; the first vehicle I bought after college. It's been a challenge keeping it up. Parts are really getting difficult to find, and the EBay sellers want an arm & a leg for parts. I agree with datzenmike; try to find someone who is parting out one first. Things like upholstering the bench seats shouldn't be too expensive. Don't restore it for an investment; you will lose money. Only do it if you want to keep the truck as a hobby. I've spent well over $3,000 on my truck keeping it up; new paint, rebuilt engine, wheels, and various other improvements.
