Hey gang,
I know this doesn't really pertain to Chargers, but this question is regarding door glass.
Does anyone know, other than the stainless end molding, if the door glass is the same between '68-'70 hardtops and post-coupes (Road Runners, etc)?

Boy, thats a good question Bill. I can put a tape on a couple of Dart door glasses and check. But it will be tomarrow morrning before I will get back to you. I'm shure if the did it to one stile of car (A-body) they would do the same with another (B-body).

The part numbers are different in the B-bodies.  That isn't always a perfect indicator but usually it is.

I'm getting conflicting answers.  :scratchchin:
Between the replies here, PM's, and my personal email the answers right now are 50/50.  :brickwall:

Anyone know for sure??

The Coupe glass has a rounded corner on the top rear of the glass.....Not the same.
