Coupe and Convertible Vent Window Glass...Differences???

[James W.]

What is or are the differences between C2 Corvette coupe and convertible vent window glass? Do they interchange, not the frame, just the glass?

Thanks,

James

James: To my knowledge they are different in the angle. They do not interchange AFAIK. Others can chime in. Larry

I had a 70 LT-1 Convertible that was hit in the door & they installed A coupe door & I assume it had the coupe glass in & it fit fine.

A 70 LT-1 is not a C2

Coupe vent glass is much smaller than Convertible vent glass.

And by the way, the C3 windows don't interchange, either. However, C1 coupes and convertibles interchange.

Re: Coupe and Convertible Vent Window Glass...Differences???

Thanks to all who have responded. The reason why I asked this question is because I am in need of a tinted driver's side coupe wing vent window dated approximately LJ to match the rest of the glass in my '65 coupe. The car is an AO Smith bodied car with a Trim Tag date of K24 June 24th, 1965.

I've thought about purchasing a dated reproduction vent window, but I've been holding out for an original. Are the repro's any good?


Thanks,

James
