Re: 1969 L35 X66 Conv cortez over blk dlx
A few hours of hard blocking with water and gentle soap I use a piece of 1" PVC pipe 10 inches long that was heated and flattened on a sheet of pyurex glass in the oven giving approx 1" ultra flat surface with a slight roll on either edge I make sure to hold the paper tight so it only cuts highs.

Re: 1969 L35 X66 Conv cortez over blk dlx
Thanks Darrell,
I had posted photos on the CRG regarding the front glass. Until seeing this I had assumed all were Libby Owens Ford LOF or Pittsburg Plate Glass PPG. KurtS said it wouldn't have been installed in the plant. Steve Shauger asked if it had the original seal, which it did, however after answering his question I never heard anything else regarding the possibility of it being assembly line installed. I suspected it was original given there was not a DOT mark and it was installed with the original seal. The question is why was this glass used? Anyone else have a NON DOT coded Shat-R-Proof glass installed with the original cloth type seal?

I remember you posting it on CRG but I didnt pay any attention to the glass till the other day when I was washing the car. I suspect it was a 3rd party supplier. One thing I have learned is never say never..

Installing the original interior after being thoroughly cleaned using a stiff bristled brush to get into the grain.
