My SE has the bronze glass all around , icluding the windshield and body colored mirrors, was wondering how rare it is.

 

Also has build date of 5/85

 

there are 5 colors that got the bronze glass and painted mirrors after 4/85, vin 893766 or higher (it shows production goes until 8/85, 912600, but i don't know that i have seen a car that late). i should point out that 4/85 is pretty late in the production run too, its only a few boat loads of cars. i've never seen any literature on it, except its in the parts fische.

the colors are noble white, brilliant black, tender blue, sunbeam silver, and royal maroon metallic

all of the other colors get normal glass and mirrors

 

Thanks, cool to know, my vin is 901609 in the white. I guess if the glAss ever breaks, I'm screwed. The moonroof is also bronze.

 

Were there any 1st generation models with Blue tint glass (instead of green)?

 

I had three other 1st gens a 79,81 and 83. Two hd the green and one had blue, but I can't remember which was which 20-25 years ago, or know any details. Maybe the guy who answered mine can help

 

I have 2 '79LE's. Both have green tinted glass.
I suspect it is the '83LE that had the Blue, then. The '81 was kind of a blah year.
.
Hope someone can steer me as I intend to have one of the '79LE's painted "screen of death" blue with a little metal flake. Blue tinted glass would set it off perfectly!

Pics?
