68 convertible barracuda PS door glass. Looking for ideas to find this either repro or original in clear. Any pointers are greatly appreciated.

Anyone know Xtraoldstock? His mailbox is still full and I haven’t been able to contact him. I would appreciate anyone who knows him and could reach out and check in with him
 
At the risk of misinformation... First what we do know, Any Barracuda hardtop has a rounded roof line so obviously those door glasses will not work on a vert. We know Dart and Barracuda verts need a flat top door glass and we know that glass will work on both verts.
Now the questionable part that I read a few years ago... A Dart vert owner needed a door glass. He found that the Dart 2 door hardtop has a flat enough roof line for that donor glass to work in his vert.
If it worked on Dart vert it would work the same on Barracuda vert.
I have to imagine that Dart hardtop glass does have some difference or it wouldn't have a different part number. How much difference the upper weather strip on a vert can absorb is the question. Did that owner settle for a little additional wind noise? We don't know.
If I had access to a Dart hardtop door glass, I do have a straight edge / framing square, and a B'cuda vert. I would find out just how much difference there is.
Beyond all that I can only add that I got a drivers door glass for my 67 B'cuda vert from Wildcat Wrecking. It arrived with 67 Dart vert wrote on it. That too was several years ago.
Good luck, good hunting.
