Glass question
Ok, I have been researching glass replacements for '67 small window. From what I understand the '67 to '72 use the same windshield, vent glass and door glass. The rear deluxe glass is also the same for those years. The '67 small window is a one year only for the C10. Is what I am thinking correct?
Also, I am looking for a complete glass kit. Which vendors have you used? Thanks |

Re: Glass question
Yes, all my glass is toast. It is either cracked, delaminated or fogged. The rear is a slider which I hate as they never work as intended.
I've been doing to much research I managed to confuse myself what glass would work in my truck. |

Re: Glass question
glass unlike some body panels are not built from old worn tooling that has been duplicated or is even original worn tooling that has not been corrected for its wear on the assembly line
have to look at overall price and shipping i don't like slider glass anymore myself that will be the next thing i swap out in my 72 |

Re: Glass question
Well I ordered my glass kit from Auto City Classic. Email them and even though the description states the rear glass is 12x42 they said it would fit. So I'll measure it when arrives.
Grumpy Old Man pointed out that 67's have a different cent window. The difference is that there is no hole in it for the handle. The handles on the 67 are on the vent frame itself |

Re: Glass question
I came here to give you the link and you have already ordered it. Auto City is where I have sourced my glass for years. Good luck.

Re: Glass question
Ok, I got my glass today and the rear glass is the correct size. The glass measures 11.5 x 41.25 even though product description states 12 x 42. So I now have new glass all the way around for my ride
