1968 Cutlass/442 Convertible Door Vent Windows

Looking for a set of complete door vent windows that aren't pitted or dented up. I believe the 68-72 cars all used the same set up.

Do you have the numbers off of the window frames? I have several nice vent window assemblies, but all aren't marked. Thanks, Bob.

One year only and specific to convertibles but used across all a-body lines.

Don's East Coast Restoration will rechrome your originals. At one time they used Sandy's Bumper Mart in Syracuse NY to do the chrome work.

Sandy's told me they would do mine but I never got around to it

Rick,

I've been looking for a nice set for 20 years. I bought a really nice hard top set last year in hopes I could find someone to trade but didn't have any luck

Thanks for the info Mike. Did they quote you a price for restoring?
If you've been on the hunt for 20-years, I might be S.O.L.!

I have a set of vents from a 68 cutlass 2 door post car. Is that what you are looking for? In good shape.
Thanks

Just noticed you said convertible. So they most likely not be the same.

Hi Tim,
Yes, I'm looking for a set for a convertible. I wish others would fit but they don't.
