rearview mirror attachment point
« on: December 28, 2012, 01:43:00 PM »
On 1968 coupes was the rearview mirror attachment point the glass or the windsheild frame?  Or did it change at some point during the year from windsheild frame to the glass?

+1, never seen a 68 w/frame mount.  Shop manual calls out 4 1/16" from edge of glass to center of mounting tab.
