My door glass (which is not in the truck yet) has a very slight greenish tint to it. Not sure if this is original or not, but it is hardly noticable until you put it in the sun, where it becomes more obvious.

As my door glass is out I'm having it tinted to hide the green tint - won;t work with my red/black paint.

I have green glass in my 57 LCF. It does not show up in a picture. It is just a bit of color in the glass. Looks better than clear in my opinion.

I do but as you have been told a picture will not show the green up very well. It almost looks gray from a distance.

I have an original unused piece of door glass in the GM box. I'd sell it to you if it would help. (I have the factory green glass in my GTO, my '64 Vette and my '55 sedan, and I like it.)

Anybody can have gray (I do in my other vehicles) but to have one vehicle with green tint is special.
