On the later 75/76 cars with factory tinted glass was the rear window also green tinted? I have two parts cars with the tinted glass and both of them have clear back glass. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif)

A few cars were factory tint but I don't know which. We saw one at the PorVolk's fest at Mark Henry's place.

My '75 had the original windshield and it was tinted. The rear was clear.

i think the heated rears are tinted, I have 1 76 tinted windows not the back, another has no tinted glass.
tinted = shaded? |

i have seen a few tinted rear windows, but i don't know when/where they were used originally. i have a whole set of green(ish) tinted windows on my car, except the rear window. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool.gif) Andy |

My 76 has tinted glass, front and sides, but I honestly cannot say for sure if the rear is or not. Lot's of help, huh? I'll check tonight.

Thanks.......... I talked with someone today and they confirmed that the back was always clear with all others tinted green from the factory.

All back windows were clear whether they were heated or plain. I have been taking to the local glass place about making up some tinted ones out of flat car glass and they said it could be done. No price yet.

Yes, all tinted on mine except the rear glass. What is point of tinting the back as its not like someone can even see in there? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif)
