Windshield Question
Saw a beautiful 1995 car that had a windshield from a 90-92 with the large cutout. My question is this, was it possible it was replaced under warranty by the dealer?
This was an LOF windshield. |
Re: Windshield Question
the jury is out on this subject. I was at the ncrs meet in kissimmee and there was a polo green 1995 zr1 with that very problem. there was a chevy engineer with this group and he was saying that sometimes they kept spares for corresponding years and if a particular group of cars/windshields were having a problem that it would not be out of the question that they would use a good one from a previous year. this green 1995 was bought by the current owner in 1997 so the car was 2 yrs old and extremely low miles. it has 7k miles now. never in an accident but it does have a 1990 style windshield. it did receive a ncrs top flight award and the judges didnt even question it.

Re: Windshield Question
That was a great looking car. polo green w/saddle int. is a great combo.
That car was an easy top flight, but I am surprised the judges didnt question it.There was also a great looking 94 white zr1 that had a dave Hill award, PV, and was going for the Crossed flag award. Top of the food chain. |
Re: Windshield Question
It might have been all the dealer had left or what was left in the system at the time of the install.

This was my thoughts exactly being there was less 93-95 cars, therefore GM knew the production numbers by that time and only planned for X number of windshields with the small cutout. Just curious if any other documented cases with a 93-95 car that had the 90-92 windshield? No argument the PG car was nice, and it was even more intriguing as to like taximan said. The judges didn't question the large cutout, It was the first thing I noticed. |

I did some C4 glass research for date codes and the "formula for date coding" changed in '93 possibly. I never new that and it became apparent when a '96 GS owner was looking for a specific date code that I couldn't confirm. After that was confirmed I asked here for owners to check and confirm theirs with no responses. I posted back what I believe were likely correct after restudying the information available. Is it correct? I'm quite sure. Perhaps this thread will generate new interest for NCRS. A '93 owner mentioned years ago that he had a GJ coded windshield but he went on to give the dimensions and the dimensions he gave were certainly for a later "window". I never asked more or questioned the owner. The thread I mentioned is here: http://www.zr1.net/forum/showthread....eld+date+codes |
Re: Windshield Question
Taxi man your right about that Polo Green with the Saddle int, that was one of nicest cars I had ever seen. I am a little partial to that combination , I have a 68 with it.
