Just curious about the rear defog. Is it a forced air blower or electric defog on glass. I didn't see the light on the dash switch for defog on glass.

Hey Allan . This one is the blower style. Now that I think about it, I can't remember ever seing the other style on a fast back.

For what it's worth, my 69 442
was ordered with the rear air forced
blower style defogger.

I think it was less expensive for the blower type defogger since it didn't require any modification to the rear glass and wiring harness. The rear defog on glass for my 72 came from a 1972 Cutlass S I found in the bone yard. It was an AC car so the glass is also tinted. The dash bezel has a different overlay than the one your car has and the switch is only 2 position vs. the Off, low, high on yours.
