Great work you have done on that car, in such a short amount of time. What did you use for paint? Looks like single stage... :thumbsup:
 
Finished in hot rod black. Total time was from April 16th thru July 6th. Working on it at least 40 hours a week

I have learned that many times the rear door glass is from something else. I suggest that you measure diagonally from upper corner to lower corner, then the width top and bottom, and finally, the height at the end and in the middle. Carry a cloth tape measure with you whenever you are out along with the measurements, and you have a good chance of finding another car that has that glass. Once you know if the glass was used by another commercial chassis builder, it will give you a better chance of finding it. Presently, you have limited your search for S & S, however, Miller Meteor or Superior might have also used that rear glass. Also post the measurements here, and I will check my 1969 Miller Meteor glass to see if it is the same.
 
Didn't S&S exclusively use that rear door glass in the '60s and '70s (possibly even later) that had a "bend" in the center that lined up with the vertical seam in the rear door? The attached photo is of a '72, but same configuration.

Glass

Didn't S&S exclusively use that rear door glass in the '60s and '70s (possibly even later) that had a "bend" in the center that lined up with the vertical seam in the rear door? The attached photo is of a '72, but same configuration.

That is S&S only. I have a set of doors from a 72 .I believe the rear door glass is the same 65-76 I really would like to sell the doors as a set , good glass and doors and hinges on all doors. $600 for all 5 doors . with out the belt line trim. If the door glass would work maybe someone else needs the other doors your way?
