Default Anyone makes a back glass for the 67/68 Fastback?

I'm still restoring my 68 Fastback and I have all the sheet metal to finish the body.
I'll have a custom interior and drivetrain with painless wiring throughout.
So, I don't need to stock anything more since I don't know for sure what I'll use for the custom department.

I also have brand new glass except for the rear one...
Didn't get any luck at SEMA about finding an easy solution.

Any of you folks have an idea on this one?

This is tinted though, but it still is back glass.

Someone does make it, I just can't remember atm who. I'll see if I can figure it out when I get home. It's pricey though. IIRC, 67-68 fastback glass runs something like $380.

I called them a couple a months ago and got a "back order" from them with no sign of availability in sight...
I'll be calling them first thing on Monday and the tinted option is better for me anyway.
M.Unlimited is a good company and always been happy with them.

Thanks BA Mustang

If no one makes it, start searching ebay for it.

NPD sells it. I had to buy one after I attempted to polish mine and it exploded in my hands. Really didn't want to share that horrific story but that is how I know they had what you are looking for. Took about 3-4 days to get mine via truck freight.

I didn't see it on their catalog though.
They're close to me (Ocala FL) so I can go get it myself and save on shipping.
I have to place an order with them so it'll work out fine.

It's in their catalog, try page 205, Rear Window. Part number 42006-3A or B depending on tinted or clear.

I just talked to them on the phone and they have two tinted ones in stock ($392).
I don't have the 09 catalog though.

Now I feel like a moron...
When I got the rest of the glass, none of the back glass were available.
Same when I did my floors, two months later, they came up with the full one piece.
Always like that.

Thanks all.
