Will a 1965 4 door rear window fit a 2 door sedan?

Post by ArkansasComet »

I am wondering if a rear window from a 1965 4 door would fit my 1965 2 door 202 sedan? Thanks!

Can't say for sure, but I am guessing no, I think it will be too large. I would of had a couple of rear windows out of a '64 sedan but the guy nicked them when he cut the top off the car and one broke on the way home and the other is still there just has the same issue.

I am pretty sure a '64 2dr sedan window will fit a '65, as well as Falcon windows from either year.

See Ya,

Na , A 4dr has another little pointy window in the rear that looks like the front vent window but it is stationary & the door glass is rectangular & rolls up & down. Only a 2 dr sedan will fit, but as Mike said most likely the falcon & 64 & possibly all the way back to 60 may fit. they certainly look alike. You might check glass run weatherstripping to see if it is listed for all 60 thru 65 2 dr sedans, that would be a good clue.

Sorry guys, my question was misleading. I am wondering if the back glass/rear windshield is the same. Thanks for the replys!

Thanks John! I thought so, I did find gaskets like the one you posted that made me think they are the same, but I wanted to check with the more knowledgeable folks here. Looking forward to meeting up with you in June! -Jim

Well I could have answered my own question if I wasn't lazy & just looked in my master parts catalog! The 2 door sedan & 4 door does use the same back window.
