Hi Michael,
Thanks for your insights here!
From what we have learned so far, there is only one size of rear for all
the different models.

Dave, 

You are absolutely correct.  I did install a glass rear window in my 69.
It was a nightmare.  The glass was ordered from England.  I was unable
to find anyone who would install it locally so I tried it with a little
help from my friends.  The glass didn't fit well so we had to do some
fiberglass buildup to fill in the gaps.  Even after careful measurements
and alot of fiberglass work, installing the glass was very difficult.
It went OK installing the rubber seal, but when we put the spreader in
to tighten the glass the lower left corner of the glass cracked.  Too
much thumb pressure I quess.  It is not very noticable from a distance
so I just left it alone.     

The polycarbonate glass would be alot more forgiving.  I have to ask if
there are different sizes for different models or years?
