This will tell you,

GM pretty much shared all it's glass across most lines back then. So CP should be the same as Chevrolet.

I believe the 62 impala/Parisienne 2 door hardtop and probably the convertible top windshield is shorter than other models of 1962. The rest are all the same, 61-62, all body styles. Not positive on the 61 convertible, but a 61 2 door impala was a bubbletop, same glass as a 62 bel air 2 door bubbletop.

yes; try Auto City Classics. When I was with NOS. W did'nt sell a lot of glass  but Auio City was quite often the source. Very competitive ! Have them ship it to an US address and go pick it up.

Autocity for sure, I have done all the glass on my car from them. EZ to work with. Cheap shipping in the USA. You are in Windsor, find a shipping mailbox in Detroit and drive across the bridge, save yourself $150 easy..

Thats odd because in the chart in the third post it shows models 37, 39 and 67 being the same windshield for 1962. Model 39 being a four door hardtop.

In 61-62, it says 47 & 67. Those charts are very confusing to read.

Yeah, you have to be carefull with the four dour Hardtop. I used to think a hardtop is a hardtop, found out the hard way... a couple of times.

It is confusing.

4802392 I read as all styles except 47 (2 door HT Laurentian/Parisienne in 62), and 67 Convertible. Meaning the 2 door HT and ragtop are the same both years.

Then in the big GM chart it goes on to denote the 37 as a Laurentian/Parisienne 2 door HT but only in 61.


Is there a difference between 61 and 62, 2 door hardtops?

62 impala, Parisienne, and Laurentian 2 door hardtop had the formal what I call fake convertible top, same as 63 and 64.
The 61 impala, Parisienne, BelAir, and Laurentian, plus the 62 BelAir, 2 door hardtops were all bubbletops. GM called them a sport coupe and sport sedan for the pillarless 2 and 4 doors.
