I am thinking about trying to build my own gullwing windows and was wondering if there was anyone who has done the same who might be willing to share details of their builds? Or, even better (for me), if any current vendors of gullwing windows would be willing to tell me their source for hinges and latches? I definitely don't expect that. I wouldn't share my vendors if I had a business and respect the same in others.
 
Not yet. Chilly weather, no garage, and a stretched budget has put this project on the backburner. I see no reason why the same setup wouldn't work for an 80, though. I plan to source the parts from McMaster Carr, though.
 
I am looking to do this as well this winter, I got a window out of a junk yard to use the frame and plan on making a yodateq style one out of aluminum
 
I plan on using UV stable plexiglass for my windows. I still use the 3rd row seating semi-regularly for scouts/cousins/nieces and it'll be nice to still be able to see out back there. Tinted, of course.
