I took a Photo of my "other" 68 that was on the Line at Los the same or next week for reference of Logo desired.
Fingers crossed on quality and performance.

I did lose points at MCACN for scratches in my original glass which I gladly accepted. I'd rather keep what's still original to the car....Joe

There are places that will buff some imperfections successfully but you're going to burp for it.

Agree, side window glass that I have seen is terrible. Our 68 has the original side window glass in and it was easy to adjust. Our 69 has repro side glass and what a pain. Similar to what Joe did, use your orginal if anyway possiible IMHO.

Post by: 169INDY on November 25, 2024, 02:57:11 PM: I have received my ECS (Auto City Glass) with Logo and my painters installed it successfully without complaint.
Logo sample I provided and it looks like they did a very nice job replicating it.
