Hey gang. Friend brought to my attention that maybe there is a difference in the side door glass between a E-body hardtop and convertible? Here is a side door glass from what I believe is from a 70 Barracuda ragtop.

I have both conv and hardtop and just looked at them and if they're diff it's really subtle, I think they are the same.
Take care, Rick 68 Coronet R/T 440 & 68 Charger 528 Hemi,and 5 Challengers! 6 cyl, 318, 360, 383, 451

So they measure the same from top of door to top of glass with the window in the up position? Just checked out AMD's site real quick, looks like there is a difference, maybe inside the door.. Will check my parts book later on this week....
Cheers,

And... convertible 1/4 glass is different Cuda verses Challenger... and both are different than hardtop.
OK, one of us is misremembering - I believe the vert quarterglass is the same for Challenger and Cuda, the hardtop quarterglass is different.....

Hardtop door and quarter glass have a rounded edge vs. the angular edge of the convertible glass. Here's a photo of the convertible rear quarter glass on left as compared to hardtop rear quarter glass on right. Terry The door glass is different too, correct? I believe someone said it was.. Nice visual on the rear side glass... Thanks...

As Mccannix pointed out in my earlier post, my photos showed the difference between the rear Challenger glass. Here's a photo of Challenger clear convertible door glass on left to hardtop tinted glass on right. Difference in front top corner is apparent. Terry
