What I think is interesting is not so much the time span between the glass and the car, but, that all four panes are that early. That would indicate to me that they actually matched up all of the side glass into sets (tinted vs non, and hdtp vs convert) as it came in. Again, maybe tinted convertible glass hung around the factory longer than other sets because there were fewer cars built with it. Also, as new glass came in the earlier glass may have just gotten buried in the back of the storage area and not gotten to until the inventory thinned out again. This is were it would be interested to have access to the collected data to see if there are similarities between the late built cars with it (eg all tinted glass convertibles, etc). Again, skimming through the FGF thread it seems like there are several Firebird data points with later build dates including at least 5 cars with June and July build dates including mine.
