    I have a newly acquired 70 GS with a badly cracked windshield (amoung other things)
    I have a friend who is parting out a 68 Chevelle, are these windshields
    interchangeable? Seems like the basic body is the same. Thank you
    in advance.

    Willem,
    looking at my GM windshield interchange table a 68 Chevelle and a 70 Buick GS have different part numbers, so I don't think they will interchange
    I can give you a list from models that will interchange windshields with a 70 GS...Just let me know

    I believe that 1970 was the first year the radio antenna was embedded in the windshield. That might be the only difference from 1968? Anyone know if the fit is the same?

    Thank you Rob.
    Has it been your experience that different manufacturers will use the same universal part number or will they assign their own unique number? I would appreciate knowing what would fit the 70 GS.

    Hee Rob,

    Which windshields are interchangeable for a '68 GS?

    Bart, at least this models on this list should share same windshields/partnumber...but as stated above.... it could be that the only change of partnumber is due to the added window antenna for 70 up :Do No:

    Don't waste your time with an old original...most likely will have "sparkles" and you won't see them until night time with someone coming at you with the headlights on. Call Safelite 1-800-800-ASAP and get a new one. They are only $120 thru a glass service account or $160 to you as retail.

    George,
    That is something I didnt think about, you are absolutely right. I also did not consider the safety issue. I am glad you chimed in, I will go for some new glass. Spent thousands already, why skimp on something as important as safety glass.
