Welcome to the site!
Your best bet is to post a wanted ad
It's about 3/4 of the way down the "Forums" page.
Good luck!
BTW, try to save and reuse your rear window seal if you can- they're pretty hard to come by, I believe.

That's a really tough glass to find. One year only, one model only. The seal is actually easy to find compared to the glass. I wish you luck.
Seal. Expensive, but readily available.

Glass, not so much. If you find one, you better grab it. I need one too for a friend.

Hollander shows #2702 - '64-'66 2 door and 4 door cross-over.
Not sure why '63 is not included.
There is a '64 sedan at local yard in El Paso ,but rear window is long gone.

The rear glass is one year only for 63 Dart and should be the same for sedan and hardtop. Look at pictures on the internet and
you will see the difference between 64-66 Darts. The 66 Valiant rear glass is also a one year only piece.

If that's true, that's going to be one expensive glass by the time the shipping gets added to the glass price. In the past, I've had good luck shipping back glasses here in the states by using a heavy duty cardboard bicycle box, cardboard taped over all the edges, and wrapped in carpet padding, but, overseas......I think I'd crate it if it were me in the middle of that.

Yes, I agree... if it was me, I think I would really consider buying one from Kanter's, as they are/ or should be very
well acquainted with processing that kind of stuff, and for the price, I would have to think the glass would be
insured by them for save delivery, even tho they the (original poster) are overseas. IMO, probably be a better option to shell out
the 500 dollars, and have what you need, and correct too. Good luck to the original poster, in whatever he
decides.

I've tried twice now. It seems to not be sinkin in.
That's just the rubber seals. Says so in the description.
Wow. That's gonna be tough. I have one to fit a 64. I wish it was for a 63. I'd hook him up for just shipping.
It's not included, because it's one year only, one model only. 1963 Dart rear glass is all by itself.
Love the kitty cat in your avatar.

Or Canal Zone, which would put him in Panama... Either way, big $$$ shipping. Hell, can't even ship things across the state and have them arrive in one piece anymore.

That link is for both the windshield and back glass rubber seals only....no glass. It's interesting that Kanter lists 3 different sets (not counting the convertible which has a slightly different windshield seal) They show one set for the 4dr sedan, another one for the 2dr sedan, and yet another for the 2dr HT, when they all use the same glass front and rear. The factory parts book shows one back glass seal for all but the GT, which they show has 3 different color options. I seriously doubt Kanter has anything but black like the sedans, so, why 3 different part numbers and 2 different prices? They all use the same windshield seal except for the vert, which they don't carry, even though the common W/S seal will work on the vert. Strange.....

Thanks @RustyRatRod and @cudamark I see that now. Apologies to the OP for any confusion. I’ll edit my initial post.
It's all good. It's just another one of them weird Mopar things. The only reason I know about it is because I had a 63, BROKE the back glass and miraculously found another one. Now, I have a 63 4 door that belongs to a friend I am helping. The back glass is about all I have left to find and we've not found one YET.

Nope, tempered glass will shatter if you try to cut it. Grinding it would cost way too much, and you may still shatter it in the process. Beside, I'm not sure the shape is close enough to do either.

I had a hard time finding a 63 rear glass as well. Mine was broken when I bought the car. (wish I'd known how hard they were to find BEFORE I bought it...lol). As others have said 63 Dart is one year only. I got lucky and found one. Best place to get the rear seal is directly from steele rubber. I bought direct from them. They are the only ones reproducing that seal. Their price was better too. I think any one else selling one is either theirs, or a universal you have to cut and glue together. Also be careful as I found a couple sites showing it fit 63-66. If it doesn't state it fits 63 only, it probably isn't correct
