Who Takes Their.....
Who takes their rear window out? The rear window on the '69 T top model is removable and I take mine out....only occasionally. Am I the only one or do you guys remove yours often.....?

There was a post on it. You can fit the earlier windows to your 73. Do a search, lots of info on it. Mine is ragtop 73, my whole roof 'removes'. :jester

I've got a 73 and [by design] the rear window pretty much stays put.
But I did take it out once to replace the sealant that had rotted away over the years. :lol:
I took 'er for a cruise while the window was out and it was pretty cool. :cool: If I had the option, as I do with the t-tops, I'd have them off unless the weather said "don't do it". :yesnod:

I am always taking mine out. The car is much cooler and has a better flow of air with it removed. Of course my car does not have AC and the Louisiana heat and humidity is rough.

Re: Who Takes Their..... (Sigforty)
In the Spring and Fall, the T-tops come off. For the Summertime, the t-tops stay on and the back window is out. The heat and the Sun beating down on my balding head just does not feel good anymore :D ,but the flow with the windows down and the rear window out makes it a bit cooler in my non A/C car.
