Old Man with a Hat
Had the exact same thing happen on a '63 Valiant I had back in 1982. It was 33*F out, and mine was not tinted. Sometimes, these things just happen, hot or cold.
I know every time this has happened to me, the glass was in direct sunlight. 1977 Royal Monaco, 1983 Cordoba, (Landau Roof), 1992 Grand Voyager, 2005 Caravan.Yup the sun shines right on that back window where it’s parked. Wonder if expansion was the issue.
Go to Windshields-R-Us and pay the man.Any advice on removing the broken window and installing the replacement?
Wait til Tobias gets back home. He's got the experience.

I'll go.So waddya doing Monday?? Got a trip to Tilley planned
Talked to a few glass places we deal with in the Dealership side and they all were disinterested in working with 40 year old glass....
Boy that kind business attitude pisses me off. They just have to plug 79 Cordoba into the database to get the NAGS number and then check warehouse inventory. Took me longer to type that than it takes to do it.

I think if it was the front windshield they would be a little more helpful but being rear window ....crickets
I can't say I'm surprised, but thought you might have a little more pull considering your background. IMO, the best results would come from speaking to one of the more "weathered" employees before giving up.Talked to a few glass places we deal with in the Dealership side and they all were disinterested in working with 40 year old glass....
I've found glass in new, fresh off the truck, vehicles... once a surprisingly poor cleanup. They left a little under the seat and cleaned nothing out of the door... I'm trying to remember what that was on and why the complaint... I think the glass prevented full opening of the window.I bet there’s not one car that I’ve taken apart that didn’t have at least a couple of pieces of glass laying around somewhere inside.
