i have a 65 olds dynamic 88 convertable. i need to get a new drivers side vent window. does anyone know if the vent windows in any of the large body olds from 64 to 67 were all the same? thanks chris

I'm not positive on this but I think the 65 & 66's are the same. And I think hardtops (Holiday coupes) and convertibles are the same. A classic car salvage yard should be able to cross reference it for you. I think someone (kennibil) had some big cars parts for sale on this site.

Hey Chris!
I've got a set of vent windows somewhere. Let me dig through my garage to see exactly how it looks. There will be some shipping from Ontario to Origon though.
I'll let you know when I get to it (a lot of snow in front of the garage).

64-67 and 68-72 are common years for A-body cars. 65-70 are common years for B-body cars. As noted, however, vent windows vary by body style and were dropped in 1969.

If you have the metal frame could you get a new piece cut? I had a local glass shop cut a piece of flat glass to fit my 1967 442 rear windshield. I took one that was not tinted in for them to use as a pattern. So you might have to take the other side apart and let them use it as a pattern. It won't have the factory numbers on it, but if your having a hard time finding the right one this might be a possibility. John

thanks dynamite let me know. thanks for the info as usual joe. 2blu442 i have the frame and theres nothing wrong with the glass. the chrome is all flaked off and rusted pretty bad. figure it would cheaper to buy a nice used one with good chrome then trying to get this rechromed. thanks for the info though. chris

Hey Chris, I found them. The glass is mint in both, but the chrome is starting to pit. great for a driver, not good enough to show. The rubber is dry but in good shape. Not much better than the ones on my car, so i can probably sell them. I'd like $150 for the set plus shipping if your interested. Of course once they're sold, I'll get a baseball throughone of mine!
Regards, Mike

The part numbers on the frame are 5719311-LH-B-f and 5719310-Rh-B-f
