Soo cool!

Then in 1971 vent windows were gone entirely (except optional power vent windows on 1971 Chrysler New Yorker and Imperial four-door hardtops with power windows).

Oh? I had a 73 Newport sedan once, with manual windows AND vent windows, no AC... It was made for export, maybe that's why?

True, what I wrote about 1971 (only optional power vent windows on 1971 Chrysler New Yorker and Imperial four-door hardtops with power windows) also applies for 1972.

Due to popular demand, in 1973 manual vent windows were again available as an option on four-doors (all Chrysler, Dodge Polara/Monaco, Plymouth Fury). Power vent windows remained an option on 1973 New Yorker four-door hardtops and 1973 Imperial four-door hardtops.
 
It IS a science... Makes my head blurry some times, so that's gotta be it.
 
I know, and he's been at it a long time. But even he has made mistakes as he types on this board. My comment was simple, he looked up the information before he put it to words..
 
Yes, of course I looked up the information before I put it on here. How else should I know? It wasn't me building these cars back then.

Now the esteemed members of this forum need not study the data books themselves about this topic. If that's a spoiler to you, please accept my apologies.

I never said I wouldn't make any mistakes. Of course I can be wrong! If so, please correct me! Nobody is perfect! It is some form of science and data book information may be false since cars could have been built differently than was planned at the very beginning of the model year. Or mid-year changes may have been introduced and not reflected in all literature available to us.

Which is why this forum is really a great thing, it brings together the knowledge and experience of many interested individuals for common benefit.
 
In 1969, ventless side glass was standard on two-door hardtops with A/C, and was a no-cost option on two-door hardtops without A/C (read: non-A/C two-door hardtops usually still had vent windows in 1969). Then in 1970, all two-door hardtops received ventless side glass. This does not apply to convertibles.

So far, I haven't seen a 1969 or 1970 Chrysler convertible without vents.

Power vent windows were optional if you also ordered power windows, but not in the 1970 two-door hardtops.
