67 Valiant glass related question

[brushhippie]

I am looking for a replacement wing vent for my 67 Valiant sedan..I can find the 2 dr listed in a couple of places..pretty sure the vents for the 2 and 4 door are the same..can anyone confirm that? Thanks

Rather than count doors, confirm no post/hard top or post/sedan. That's where the difference is. 2 door no post/hard top will be shorter than 2 and 4 door post sedans.

This is a hard top sedan...this is the glass I ordered Classic Auto Glass Catalog - 1937 - 1973 - Windshield Glass, Back Glass, Door Glass, Vent Window Glass and Quarter Window Glass - Vintage Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, Plymouth, Chrysler, Dodge, Cadillac, Studebaker
this is the lovely it should fit.

fish, there were no valiant hardtops made 67 to 69. all were sedans. all wing windows 67 to 69 are the same as far as I know. the only difference is the shape at the bottom of the glass and the gasket that fits into the pivot channel that holds it. the channel itself is the same. any wing window with the correct gasket will work or just make your own gasket.

A-bodies in general... the hard top and convertible body has a a-pillar post and windshield that is 1.5 inches shorter than post sedans and wagons. The vent window frame would need to be the same.
This is copy/paste of description from link above... 67-76 PLYMOUTH VALIANT VENT WINDOW GLASS
HARDTOP / CONVERTIBLE - 2 DR - LH
does look like the door glass runs about 1.5 higher than vent window glass so...
I don't know everything so I'll just say good luck

ok , here is a wing window comparison of the last 3 cars I parted. all are passenger side windows. this is what I based my assumptions on.

first is from a 1969 Valiant 4 door sedan. the second is from a 1968 Dart GT which is a hard top. and the last is from a 1968 Valiant 2 door sedan.

here are all 3 stacked on top of
each other. all are the same size.

the only difference is the shape
on the bottom of the window that fits into the die cast trim channel that also has the locking handle on it. the 1968 windows have the same shape on the bottom and the 69 has a slightly different shape on it.

this is the channel it fits into on
the die cast trim. the gasket in the channel which is black I believe to be sealant and not a rubber gasket as I can find no casting marks on it. this would accommodate the different shapes.
