At a quick glance, I'd say 1967-'69 notchback Barracuda.

The 2nd-gen Charger standard rear-window moulding it almost perfectly rectangular.

yeah on first glance i too see it as a notch back trim LATE 68/69 only..tho a 67 with a 69 gasket and the trim clips can wear it

if you would like to verify that its a notch back rear trim.....this is going to sound VERY strange...but go find ANY dart(not the duster body) and flip the trim over...a dart back window and a cuda coupe back window are the same glass just flipped over
 
How is that possible? Dart sedans and Dart hardtops don't even use the same glass, much less the fastback Dart Sports that use a specific backlight not shared with either of the other two. I'm not sure about the sedan (post) backlight, but no way can I see a Dart hardtop window being the same... it doesn't have that "point" to it at the bottom.
 
flip it insideout.......in is out out is in...have a look and you will see it...im talking like say a 67-69 dart NON POST...

im not talking the trim im talking the glass
 
I don't see it. That point at the bottom of the glass doesn't compute with the hardtop Darts I've dealt with over the years. The contour is totally different... and the hardtop rear glass is the same from at least 1967-'75; I put a '67 backlight in a '75 way back when the Earth was still cooling.
 
im just going on what i was told..tho i did have a coupe window out and set it onto XL's dart and it sure had all the right lines and curves..couldnt belive it myself for a long time.......tho id love to actualy test fit one for 100% proof
 
I do know for a fact that an early cuda windshield will fit Darts all the way thru 76.

A backlight I wouldn't know about, but considering that the earlies were Valiants under their skin and Darts were re-badged Valiants, there could be some solid basis to what 69.5 is saying.:hmmm:
 
I'd be more likely to believe a Dart hardtop back glass would fit a fastback, if anything... turned inside out and upside down I could almost see it.
