I ordered a vent window pivot hardware kit for my 69 Super Bee. When I went to assemble my vent windows, I found that the chrome pivot parts did not line up. This led me back to do some investigation on the year one site. It appears that the kit is for A bodies (but listed for B bodies!), but the screw, backer, and spacers will work on a B body. So, does anyone reproduce the chrome pivot housings for a B body? You know, the chrome parts that attach to the vent glass?

I belive the kit is for an A body. They are shorter at the least. Any word if B body pivots are available from Chrysler? My dealer was of no help.

If you read the Year One description, they say the part is for an A body, but the hardware to mount it will work on a B body. It's a misleading descriptive - until you actually *click* on the part for further info, it is sold as a B body unit. So, any more word on the ones from Mopar?

Hello
When our vent window kits for the 68-70 B-body hardtops are ready (late nov / early dec) we will also offer partial kits
1 kit will just be the pair of vent frame front posts
The other kit will be the pivot with dome washer (inner), the vent window channel and lock lever
Thanks Tony
Tony to the rescue!
