    Date Coded Window For 1971 Coupe

    I recently had my rear window shatter while driving it. I'm trying to replace with a date coded replacement but not sure other than XN for the month and year what else needs to go on the glass. Can anybody help me here?

    Get a Technical Information Manual & Judging Guides from the NCRS Store. They are very helpful.

        Although a wealth of information, the manual may not be of assistance in this case. Unless I overlooked it, I don't see any mention of any specific print used on the rear window in the 5th Edition. Here's a photo from our 1972.

          The photo doesn't make it clear; the bottom line reads 'DOT 15 M76'. I've no idea if those numbers are used on 1971 models.

            Lawrence,

            There is a chapter on LOF glass in Colvin's book see below. Available Barnes & Noble, Amazon, etc. The LOF chapter has glass "bug" drawings of LOF windshields, side and back glass through the years. Good information as to when and how the bugs changed, however line drawings NOT photographs are what the book shows - still very useful.
