Found a 67-72 suburban 3 door. Never seen one up close before. Its completely rotted apart, but it still had all the glass in it. It seems like everything other than the windshield and vent window is completely different from the trucks and blazers of the same body style. I did some googling and only found front door and rear hatch glass reproduced. Is this glass or any other little bits rare?
 
I'd say yes--you'd be hard pressed to find those windows at a salvage yard today (here at least)--and its unlikely any OEM new ones are around...its flat glass though,so maybe they can be made up without too much hassle ?..

I kept the side windows from a '71 K10 Burb I ended up parting out,they are still leaning against a tree in my yard where I put them like 20 years ago..:crazy:..told several people who had that style Burb they could take them ,before they end up getting broken,but no takers ..I haven't tried advertising them...

By the way,the steel clamshell tailgate off a Burb those years isn't the same size as the fiberglass K5 ones,I bought that '71 Burb in hopes they would interchange or be adaptable,but the Burb is a bit wider,and if I recall correctly,the flip up window goes further down than my Blazer one did..
