Please correct me if I am wrong, but the door glass on a 69 is different between a coupe and a fastback. Right? Can't find fastback door glass and it is hard to tell by looking at two pics side by side.

I have same problem with my '69. Cpe and Sportroof door glass is not cut same at top and top front corner. Right now I have a Cpe glass but have been told from an old ford mechanic/Mustang racer that we can cut a cpe glass down to a sportroof, but not the other way. Take glass out from other side and make a template and have a good auto glass shop cut a cpe glass. A cpe glass should be easier to find - at least it was for me. I'm going to try this in about a week, let me know if you have success before, or if I'm wrong, or if you have another idea. Thanks------------------ '69 Mach I 351W FMX '67 Cpe 302

Be sure to use the glass from a '70. They are bolted to the reinforcement instead of glued like the '69. People have problems with the '69 windows coming unglued.------------------

Coupe and FB door glasses are indeed different. By the way, I invented a sure fire fix for 69 bonded channel door glasses in the 70's. Never fails again. I should have patented it. ------------------ Alex Denysenko Co-Administrator and Moderator NHRA/IHRA/SRA member NHRA and IHRA SS/LA National Record Holder '00, '01, & '02 Fleet of FoMoCo products including 88 ASC McLaren Mustang #28 Part time secret agent license #0089 US Class Nationals link
