Not to sure bout that. Our 58 has a small back window so I imagine most came with the small and the large panoramic window would have been an option. The large window makes for a very attractive rear shot

Optional "Panoramic View" is what Chevy called it. Some think that all "Cameos" and GMC "Suburban Carriers" (is the name GMC gave the Cameo) came with them... again the buyer had an option to get a small rear window in a Cameo or Carrier! Odd facts but true! How rare ?? Not that rare! But they are getting harder to find! So what are you waiting for? My two cents worth...Rico
