I just installed double wall glass into a single wall top. I'm set but a buyer may be curious if yours are factory clear or tinted.

Indeed. That’s good to know. Certainly expands potential buyers. Thanks for the information and suggestion for clarity. These are factory clear windows.

Is the glass different from one top to the other, or is it just the gaskets?

The only difference in the glass is thickness: single wall glass is about two thirds as thick as double wall glass - it's like tortilla chip thin - but the shapes and dimensions are otherwise equal. The gaskets are completely different. The single wall gasket wrinkles slightly with the double wall glass as shown here http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...&postcount=297 - maybe this will relax over time...
