Re: stainless trim question
According to page 16-1 of the 1946-1972 parts book, I find this:
All window glass is the same from 67-72 The windshield reveal molding cap is the same from 67-72 I can't find the actual windshield or glass molding though, sorry.

Re: stainless trim question
71-72 windshield and back window stainless trim has a shorter retention strip that fits into the seals. The seals are made to fit the shorter strips. 67-70 has a longer retention strip that fits into the deeper grooves in the seals. It is important that the seals match the trim.
