Like the topic says, I just found out that the 66-70 2 door sedan/ post or four door B-Body Coronet/ Belvedere is no longer available.
This means that it needs to be purchased used, and good luck to us finding one in good enough condition for our restorations.
Anybody have any suggestions?
PM me if you have one you are willing to part with. Thanks Henry

The model years are 66-70 B-Body. four door, 2 door post or Sedan and Wagon. Verts and hardtops are different
Windshield part number DW672 is no longer available new.
I have called half a dozen glass shops locally and several parts vendors like Stephens, Herbs, ect. and no-one has availability.

That doesn't make sense, I think they've got their part number wrong. 1966-1967 2 door, 1966-1970 4 door, and 1966-1970 convertible should all be the same I believe. 1968-1970 2 door is different. Could be the first time I'm ever wrong though it had to happen eventually

No guys the Convertibles and Hardtops are the same glass.

just think for a moment the way the glass and the vent window are the post cars have a fixed frame on the door the hardtop and vert's have the vent window only
As others on here have said (for 68-70 anyway, 66-67 is likely different) the windshield is the same whether its a 2-door post or hardtop... my '69 Bee post doesn't have door frames and pretty much identical to a hard top and is not like the post cars of previous years.
I bought my windshield gaskets brand new from a Moparts vendor.
yes it is but a 66-67 2 door SEDAN is different , it has a full post around the door glass like a 4 door sedan and uses a different ... TALLER ... windshield , convertibles use the 4 door sedan vent window but I'm pretty sure it uses the hardtop windshield.

I did Call, been looking into it all day AMD does not have it either.
OK, The term: post or sedan, is where the difference can be confusing.
the 68-70 B-Body Post cars were different in the configuration to the 66-67 B-Body Post
66-67 four door and wagon, 66-67 two door sedan, 68-70 four door and wagon.
the 68-70 post cars use the same glass as the hardtops and verts.

according to the hollander interchange in 66 and 67 the 2 door hardtop uses 2906 as does the convertible the 2 dr sedan 2907 as does the 4 door.
68 to 70 sedan and hardtop 2 door uses a 3303 conv 2906 and 4 dr sedan and sta wagon use 2907 the 2 doors windshields are the same except convertible
this is from the hollander interchange 39th edition
fwiw there is a guy advertising on the ct and ri craigslist that has a warehouse of obsolete glass he may be able to hook you up

Try Bob's Classic Auto Glass, they got me a windshield for my 67 Dart Sedan after I tried getting one at every glass shop in Canada and a bunch of glass suppliers on this site. Now it was not cheap ( close to $ 700 by the time they shipped it to Canada ) but it in much better than getting bugs in my teeth.
