LOF Glass Dating for Z28 Questions....
What is the Consensus on Dates for Glass on a car? How Far in advance of build date for Windshield / Back Glass / Side Glass
I have a LA Built 1968 Z28 with a Build Date of 06C that has what I consider to be original glass (except for windshield.) The Side and Quarter Glass are dated IX (June,68) and the Rear Glass is XX (February, 68) Could this be correct? I guess I am more surprised by the side and qtr glass being dated same month as cars build date. I am getting ready to order glass (Auto City Diamond) for both a 69 and 70 T/A and am curious what the "experts" say about correct date ranges for glass....i.e. how much spread etc.... Thanks in advance for any and all comments...

1969 Z/28 03D (Forth week of March) production date. Front windshield and rear glass February. Left-side door and quarter glass February. Right-side door and quarter glass January all LOF. Usually, a one-to-three-month prior date of the cars production date is acceptable. I have seen some original car go back as far as six months but not very often.

No info on dates but in addition to sending them photos of your dates, make sure you include the edge distances. I had them do the glass for my Chevelle and while the stamps are ok the location is not, the quarters are to low. Those are hand stamped so they can put them anywhere you’d like.
