Does anyone know where I can get rear glass for my 63 Dart?
Does anyone know if the rear glass from the 64 4 door will work?
63 is all by itself...
I drive a '63 Dart GT convert..so I'm not absolutely positive of sedan parts..but in my years of checking out this car, I'm almost 99% sure that the rear window glass for the '63 Dart sedans are esscentially the same as for '64 sedans. May also be same for Valiant rear windows on Sedan cars. Later models..like '65 & '66 may be a possibility. Mopar never listed glass as any aftermarket parts they serviced, (done by outside shops), therefore not much information from factory parts books to help. '64 & '64 Darts were essentially "Twin cars" with only minor cosmetic changes and minor movement of trim chrome. '64 Was 50th anniversary edition for Dodge Brothers and so noted in center horn trim marked "50 Anniversary Edition" otherwise samey, samey, samey! Good luck in your search for parts..I have found that on eBay (which is really best because it is a window to the world) you should always drop a note to any possible vendor or private owner asking about your specific needs & always include your E-mail addrs for them to reply. Something like: "Note: I ALSO NEED ..................... ..... .....COULD YOU KINDLY PLACE MY E-MAIL ADDRESS IN YOUR FILES & STICK A COPY IN THE BACK OF YOUR WALLET JUST IN CASE YOU RUN ACROSS THE PARTS I'M SEEKING TO FIND. I'LL APPRECIATE YOUR ASSISTANCE." THANKS, Xxxxxx
This type of message has found me several KEY parts for my car..not necessarily cheap, but none the less, I found them. I'm now down to searching for a CONVERTIBLE Windshield Gasket & Glass (Mopar OEM). Glass is same for all '63 but gasket, I'm told, is different for Convertibles???
63 rear windows are way smaller than 64-66. one year only on those babies and NO ONE makes a gasket for it. ask me how i know haha.
i've got both a 63 and a 64 in the driveway for comparison. if you look thru the photo albums on the site i'm sure you find some pics to compare, if not hit me up and i'll take some.

You wouldn't want to put a little cash on that? JK Typically what the other 63 owners have been doing is using generic window gasket material, available at most glass shops, or JC Whitney. I got lucky on a similar thread and found a guy with an OEM gasket still in the package, it came from Sweeden.

63 is stand alone. I've got one. Where is your location and is it 4 door or 2? :read2:
Please advise & Thanks/good luck!!:cheers:
AND can pull it with the gasket intact! (Hopefully) The 63 rear glass is not as wide as others, and thanks Optik for the lesson!
You know the difference between your 63 glAss & a hole in the ground! LOL!!
Don't worry still have yours on hold!!!!:toothy10:
Hey Homslr,Hey Tincup,
I need to keep my money for what looks like a difficult windshield gasket to find...but will appreciate your help in locating the guy who you believe bought a new gasket from Sweden...like a name, number, e-mail or some way
to reach him for more information. Your help will be appreciated.
Thanks again,
Homslr
