Correct Windshield Glass for a 1969 GS

What glass type was originally installed on my GS? What type looks best? The glass I'm replacing was clear but the glass guys says the green tint with the strip was the original glass. Any advice would be great.

Thanks,
Mike

 

Brad is correct. Does your car have AC, the "majority" of cars with AC also were ordered with tinted glass, but...not always... You could also order just a tinted windshield and not all tinted windows. AC was not required for tinted glass.

 

He said three types are available, but I didn't totally understand. I'm thinking clear, tinted green with top shade and clear with top shade. Mine is a Stage 1 without AC, and almost certainly a CA car.

 

My '68 is a no A/C car and its windshield is clear-no strip.

First quote $495 installed. Safelite said no can do. Waiting on my second quote. The first one seemed high, but I am in SoCal......

 

How can I tell if the one I'm removing was the original?

 

Can anyone tell anything from the windshield logo in the photo?

No, the photo won't get any clearer if you wait, Sorry.

 

And the photo...I was too excited to use my first emogi I forgot what I was doing

 

It looks like the date code CX is November 1968, what is the build date code on your cowl tag?
I would expect to see a cowl date code of 11 A thru D or 12A, B or C.

This is the site I used for date code info

I thought it was early, like in April maybe..

 

Ok. Is 01D April 1st?

 

01D = 4th week of January, 1969. Your windshield may have been made at the end of November and between shipping to the factory and production needs it was installed in January.

Thanks for all the help guys. Hopefully the guy I'm working with will be able to locate a clear one without an antenna.

 

Thickness varies between Manufacturers also on the new ones....
