Very early run Camaros used Blue Hong Kong glass(A). Apparently US glass was not yet available. This glass is always seen mated with an US Interior(A) and was glued in place
Late run Camaros switched to Heavy Chevy Glass, as the transition of the Custom Camaro to the Heavy Chevy happened in stages.
