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

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.
