Well, you know, I'm really not sure...
...'but': I think it's '73 or '74 on through '77, or maybe even '81 or later Courier... (just a guess)! Charles might know...

From my experiences
Couriers were made from 72 to 76 with the same cab as the B1600 and REPU. In 77 they went to the larger cab and a different body style. I am not sure if the 77 up will fit but I do know that the 72-76 are the same. I think that the 77-81 is just like the B2000 and is a little larger at the bottem. More of a pie shape than rectangular. Hope this helps. I have several windows if you are looking for a spare. I also have a slider that needs a little work. Good luck, Charles

THANKS CHARLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
from some firsthand measure I made... the 76 1/2 - 77 courier rear window is 1.125" wider .50" taller than REPU.
There was a courier rear window redesign in 78+ too that won't fit either.
From measurements I found on the internet the 72-76 Courier looks like a REPU match. I'm trying to get a new one this friday and will see if it fits!!!

rear windows
Brad, what did you find on those courier windows? I have some B1800 and Couriers spied at a local junkyard, and wouldn't mind having a spare back window.

windows
The only bad thing about using early Courier windows is they are not tinted like the REPU's were, maybe tinted was a Ford option, but most are not.

CR Laurence Sells one that does fit TSW1810
Part number TSW1810 for 72-76 courier window fits my 74 REPU perfectly. it is clear glass with black metal frame and metal latch. There is only one gasket for courier and b1600 rear windows, and it is two inches too long for REPU. So you have to cut out two inches and sillycone it together. It was $100.00 + shipping including gasket!!!! On clearance Clarance.
do *not* buy the window that is on their website speced for REPU. It is too tall and too wide. It is part number TSW1319T and does not fit 74 REPU Isn't the 77 repu rear window larger? If so I bet 1319T would fit.

Maybe I'm stupid, but I CANNOT figure out that crlawrence website. I found the TSW1810, it says to 'click here' to find out where to buy, then asks for my address and such.
Do you know exactly where I can buy this slider window?
Thanks Much!

1 (800) 421-6144
...would appear to be the # to call 'em in Los Angeles...
Covering 'General Information' on the lower left of their site with your mouse should bring up 'Contacting CR Laurence'; they list that 800 # as well as lots of other info...
Good Luck, and let us know how it goes!

They do not sell it directly to the public. Period. You must go thru a distributor:

I'll second that recommend:
I purchased weatherstrip from Express Glass; good deal with no problems.

yes, I've emailed express glass a couple of times, no response so far. I guess I could just call.

Probably a good idea...
Since they auction/sell on Ebaymotors, your email is likely one of many...
