Duster Rear Window Louvers

thanks for the pics Racerkilla do you make them or is someone doing it for you ? back in the day {70s and early 80s } they used to sell do it your self kits for the rear windows ,you just cut each slat to length and added the bent tips but I'm thinking of framing the sides and bottom of the glass , flat on the bottom 90*angle on the sides to tie the slats to ,some sort of support stringer leading to each of the top mount points / hinges? from the bottom flat piece ,I'm still trying to figure out how to secure the bottom maybe tuck it inunder the stainless , I want the stainless perimeter molding to show .

PS Leanna whats the minimum gauge metal we can use for this if we want them powder coated ?
