Can someone with access to Factory parts numbers/ books look something up?

Is the '60-'62 A body valiant / lancer Windshield Glass the same as the 1960-74 LCF series Trucks ( Dodge / Fargo 500-1000 Series)

I know it's a long shot on the windshield, but they debuted the same model year, the exterior door handles are the
same, and Ma MoPar did use part #'s across multiple lines.

I was looking at one today and it seemed to be a similar shape.

Thank you Sages!

I give up trying to post the answer to this question, with pics and everything. Perhaps once the board is no longer broken.

Okeh, now we're back to firing on all six (thanks, @Chuck !):

No, they're not even a little bit the same. Compare them side-by-each; lookit the upper corners. Lookit the lower corners. Lookit the A-pillar angle. Lookit the part of the glass outboard of an imaginary line from the upper to lower start of the wraparound; on the truck there's a triangle of glass, on the Valiant-Lancer car there's a narrow strip. Lookit the top curvature; lookit the bottom curvature.

Of course it fits. A nice rubber hammer , some Gorilla tape and some silicone. Good as gold. :D :D And I didn't even need pictures. :D

Great, Thanks

I was looking at a big truck from down low and the bottom corners made me think about it.

Well good to know that they will not swap unless Rick's method is used.
