67-72 windshield the same as 73-79?

Post by bjde0b »

my local salvage yard doesn't have any 67-72's but I think the 73-79 windshields are the same. Will someone confirm. They are $35 here so that is a good price if I can find a good one.

I know that the chrome windshield trim moulding is the same so I think the windshield is too. :?

78-79 (and maybe 77 :hmm: ) gasket and moldings are different (4 little chrome plastic filler strips and 4 corner pieces) but the windshields are the same. :thup:

If you really want a chrome molding around your windshield, and you don't want to struggle with the stainless moldings, you can use the 78-79 stuff and it will fit just fine. :D

That's not an oil leak :nono: That's SWEAT from all that HORSEPOWER!! :thup:

Yep, you're right! I forgot about the 78 and 79 difference. Thanks for the reminder :thup:
