    Need a CLEAR GLASS REAR (BACK) window...non tinted.

    Must be in very good to excellent condition.

    I assume that you know you can still get a reproduction maybe even locally.

    You should be able to get a clear back window from Auto City Classics, Inc. Maybe a deuce or so, brand new. I wouldn't even consider a used window if your car is nice...they are always scratched. You don't mention if it's a coupe or hardtop, I don't know if they are the same. Check their catalog online and they sell on ebay, too. I think they will date code, also. I know another place, I'm not home and don't have the info in front of me. Repost if this doesn't work out.

    Thanks Jim, I tried calling them earlier this year and they only do tinted. I would gladly buy a new piece, but I've been told no one reproduces the clear back windows for skylark

    I picked up a used glass from a board member earlier this year and had it polished both side. Its very nice but there are still a few imperfections that bother me.

    I'm hoping someone here has one that's sitting around.

    Called Auto City Classics and they only have tinted glass. My car is a non a/c that came with clear rear glass.

    Still looking for a suitable piece of glass for my car.

    Any leads or help would be appreciated.

    You missed one I had for sale a few month back. I almost gave it away.

    I have one sitting in my garage right now (out of a 71 4-door). I can shoot some pics for you if you like.

    Thank you for the reply. 4 door back window is not the same as a coupe so this won't work.

    I saw this cruising through maybe he could make and ship one?

    Also might be one at a-1 Johnson salvage in Billings. Don't know much about shipping, just trying to provide options. Not ideal though I'm sure.
