    Hey guys, wondering if anyone has information on the build sheets or "service parts identification" sheet on my 68. It lists "camper unit" and I'm not sure what that would have included. Also the jalousie glass was long gone by the time I got it.

    OK, I can't help it, I have to ask.  What is "jalousie glass"?  Is jalousie some fancy wine or exotic tea?  Or is it just the "Koolaid" GM guys drink?

    Old school crank out camper windows. If the glass didn't break the tiny aluminum tabs that held it in did.

    Sweet!  Thanks, guys for the education.  I still can picture a Jalousie Glass as a fancy goblet or something. Embarassed
