very cool, I was wondering this about my bird glass as well. If it is still needed I can get my code

My 10C Lordstown, doesn't have the bird glass, but is tinted.
My 05B Lordstown doesn't either
My friends 12D Lordstown does have the bird glass.

Can anyone help me out with a code on the 1967 firebird build tag I have a code that is W-2L* can anyone tell me what this means? The car was the special color o-o produced in I think the autumn of that year. Thank you

I have a 1967 firebird and one code on the bottom line left side has W-2L* can anyone tell me what that means? Thanks

1st Group (digit not shown)(W)
W .... Soft-ray Tinted Glass (Windshield Only)
2nd Group(2L)
L .... 4-spd Manual Transmission Floor Shift

Color is Coronado Gold which should be a spring color only. The complete data off the tag would help.

Thank you very much for the info. The car is at the paint shop and I take possession on Friday here is what they read off the tag for me

1967
ST 67-22437. LOR 18539
ER. 254. O-O
W-2L*

Any significance to the star after the 2L?

My 68 has a date code 11D. It was started 11-67.Lordstown and does have the bird glass.
It is a verdoro green Q2, convertable, 4 sp HO. delux interior. 59, console.
prod. # on the tag is 2138
Don,t know what else would help.

See prior page.

What is your build no.?

I have a 1968 Firebird drop top ivy gold interior and G gold exterior...12C build date with the "Bird Glass"...Maybe a special Christmas edition???

I have been doing some research on this glass...as far as plant codes, dates..thicknesses...etc.

For those of you who have Bird glass, please post the following.

Date of your build found on cowl tag.

Found on the glass is etching denoting origin/plant of manufacture, date, thickness. Will be found etched on side.

Also include front, back quarter window supplier/manufacturer information. Include if you have clear or tinted, or tinted windshield only. This information can be found on the PHS if you have it.

Example

SAFETY FLO-LITE
AS-2 27-117

Build date: 12A

Clear glass (not Soft Ray)

Left front:

It appears this thread is quite old, but if still researching my 1968 with bird glass build code is 01D

Hello Vikki,

This topic has come up on facebook first generation firebirds https://www.facebook.com/groups/161277239570/user/100024674076842 and I am wondering if there was any more info on the subject other than what you found to this date of your post. I wondered many years ago why my early 68 11A did not have the bird glass and what I found out is similar to your conclusion is that they did not start to install the Bird glass until second to third week of Nov 67 Thanks in advance Chris.H.
