1973 Removable rear window template -
Hello everybody, I looking for a template for the removable rear window for like a '73, the glass that fits into the metal frame, I need the size of the glass - Mine shattered and my idea is to replace the glass with Lexan or Plexiglass and having the template would be a big help.
Plan B is to replace the entire frame with a plastic replacement attaching the hardware that holds it directly to the plastic.
Thanks in advance,
Frank

Hey Frank,
I could be wrong but 72 was the last year for the removable rear window glass.
Many people have modified their 73’s and installed the 72 and earlier removable glass so it is possible but the entire frames and hardware are different.

Hello Frank,
Does the 77's rear deck and halo still have the fiberglass configuration to accept the gasket, locks, and lower pegs needed to install the complete removable window?
Regards....
Can you use the frame you have to make the template?
