Did you ever contact that USA company. All told, that might be your best bet, as they know how to ship glass. It's a risky and unknown proposition otherwise.

Yes i contect them, but they say: "Hi Mario:
For 1967 Pontiac Grand Prix the back window is not available anywhere new in stock or available. I am sorry, that is pretty rare to find new.

45 minutes after posting about the call from Fawcet they called back with this and sent email Sent: June 17, 2019 2:44 PM To: office@fawcettmotors.com Subject: RE: Glass Quote Requested $375 plus freight --- if its Hardtop. If you want the glass then email us bill & ship address and
phone #. Well QC the glass and then call you for payment.
Hey Cliff, sorry i don't see the messages.
I found a Window In Clear (Vancouver), the only problem is the Shipping to Germany. The Guy will package the window and will se how expansive the shipping is.
I ask FedEx how much the shipping is, they tell me it's 1300 only for shipping
Do you know is the back window clear?
I found a Glass company in Germany and they can ordered a tinted one, but I want the clear one
Thanks a lot Guys
This is the last email, a few days ago from Vancouver
I have started to investigate how to pack and ship the window. I am going to DHL Express to see about packing the window. They only ship via air, so I need to make sure this will work. I think I need to find a professional to pack the window. I do not want it to break. Once I get the window packed I can see about getting prices to ship it.
Hi just noticed this thread as I have been off the forum for a while.
If all else fails or is unfeasible I actually have two clear glass rear windows still installed, one on a 66 Grande Parisienne two door hardtop parts car and one on a 67 Grande Parisienne two door hardtop parts car. I picked these cars up partly knowing how hard these are to find to make sure my 66 Grande would have extras if needed. Mine is shaded glass car though so won't likely use them.
I can take a picture or two if you like.
Again shipping with be the real cost here. It will certainly involve a wooden crate and lots of careful padding etc.

Thanks 66 Grande guy, i let you know if I dont get one
I am still looking for someone to pack the window. Not that easy. I been really busy at work the past two weeks. Hopefully I can find someone this week to professionally pack the window. Have a good holiday and sorry about the delay.
I've read some of the posts, and I'm not sure what you're looking for.
From what I can tell, you've found a place in Vancouver Canada that can make you a window, is that correct? But they won't pack it for shipping? Is that correct?

I found a used one in Vancouver, the guy won't pack it for shipping, he will be sure that nothing happens, and he searched a professional for package.
