    I vote for vent windows When you get a long window in there its so long that it wants to rock side to side because the stock regulators are made for shorter windows . If you go this route make the lower channels longer and also go with 3/16 glass tempered. to reduce weight which causes drag WHEEEW Good luck

    Looks like I'm in the majority too. Keep em. I think that even past the comfort factor it shows craftsmanship to keep em and make sure they function perfect. It also makes for getting the side windows up n down easy because they're smaller (like stated above). Also some of the cars and truck of that time start to look a little off without em. Like the plane view of the glass disturbs the plane view of the car. I didn't read everything so if someone else already said that, oops...my bad.
