I've posted that same article several times - nobody knows how many cars suffered this indignity...
I've heard from a few dozen to hundreds...

Hard to imagine today, but this mod was not an indignity in the 60s and early 70s, but a popular way to improve rearward visibility and update the looks. Lots of those in SoCal back then. Not a bad way to go, really.

I think they make a split “patch” now to fix it back. But the window stainless and interior trim will break the bank.

I knew a guy who claimed to have one( a project car), we always thought he wanted to fake his 64 into a swc. Back then i didn't know how to tell 64 63 apart.

My dog didn’t like it when I did that to him. I can’t imagine Frankie’s Corvette would enjoy it.

These days, with a rear camera and a video mirror, the split wouldn't be so bad...now if we could just get some ventilation into that thing...
