Hi Mark,
I noticed your windshield date.
(Relatively early).
Is it LOF SAFETY PLATE, or LOF SAFETY FLO-LIGHT?
Regards,
ALAN

Easy Mike

Lucky you. Your car was built after the strike so lining up numbers is relatively easy.

My fiancee's 71 was set to be assembled in September with all the appropriate August/September dates and codes on the engine.

Due to the strike, the time/build code is December 3.

Hey Alan,

It says Shaded Soft Ray, and then below that, Safety and Plate on either side of the LOF logo.

btw,

What's the difference?

Alan 71

Hi Mark,
My understanding is that the difference is in the manufacturing process.
In Safety Plate, (PLATE), each piece of glass is made individually.
In Safety Flo-Lite, (FLOAT) the glass is made in long continuous lengths that is then made into individual windshields.
The second method is a more economical method.

Alan

Thats an interesting piece of info

Alan 71

Hi 73,
Not only is it interesting... you can trade that info for a free Big Mac at any participating McDonalds. But, only at the drive-up window.

Here is my list for the 69 Vert. I like Excel better for storing data/links. I have my documented history and other info in separate tabs.
