We’re still doing quite a bit of research into this and other 1st Gen. If you wouldn’t mind sharing the VIN, Trim Tag info as well as descriptions and/or documentation. I’d be interested in adding any of your current/former Firebirds to our Registry.

Your 1968 350 Firebird w/Bird Glass being built around the 1st week of March is certainly one of the later ’68s I’ve heard of getting this feature. It could be that this feature was pulled due to production costs. I’m currently trying to establish the latest build date for cars having this special glass. I’ve found them on original, documented, one owner cars that have been 400s, 350s, with and w/o A/C, with and w/o Custom Trim Option, Coupes, Convs, Clear Glass and Tinted, automatics and 4spds. Out of the hundreds of cars, I have yet to decipher this mystery other than to say that the Etched White Birds on the front side glass appeared only on the early 1968 Firebirds. Still need more info to be able to establish a consistent trend here.Ī: Regarding the 1968 Firebird ‘Bird’ Glass mystery I’ve collected documentation from many 1968 Firebirds during the 10 yrs I’ve been working on the 1st Gen. all built between Nov.’67 and Jul.’68 including Lordstown and Van Nuys cars. The only thing I have found is that all cars in the Registry w/the special glass are “400” cars…. * Used only on Air Conditioned and/or Power Window carsįrom the Registry-Survey I have been conducting over the past 8yrs, I have found ORIGINAL 1968 Firebird’s w/the ‘Etched’ Bird and also with or without the above features…in other words mystery not solved. * Used on all Firebird’s built before 5-1-68 ![]() This was not simply painted on.Īs far as verifying the reason’s behind why some received this special glass and other’s did not the following is NOT true… To Etch does not necessarily mean to ‘sandblast’ an image into the glass this can be accomplished in the same way as the supplier/date code info is ‘etched’ onto the glass. ![]() The process used to produce the ‘Bird’ Logo on the front side glass was referred to as ‘Etching’. Is there any connection to these options? how are is this?Ī: Regarding the ‘Bird’ etching found on some 1968 Firebird’s… Classic Industries offers a wide selection of 1969 Pontiac Firebird parts, including 1969 Pontiac Firebird interior parts and soft trim, 1969 Pontiac Firebird exterior sheet metal, 1969 Pontiac Firebird moldings, 1969 Pontiac Firebird emblems, 1969 Pontiac Firebird weatherstrip and unique accessories, to nearly every nut and bolt needed for installation. My bird has power windows and also the “Custom” interior. I have a 1968 Firebird that has the firebird emblems etched in the glass. ![]()
