If I remember correctly is was at the request of GM? Or maybe more precisely Chevrolet. Something about the value of the brand name.
Seems that after years of it being OK to use the "Chevy" moniker in their title, all of a sudden it was a bad thing.
The funny thing is that when you see a Chevy truck commercial and they talk about how many are still registered on the road its companies like (Classic Parts) that help them maintain that statistic. Sort of shooting themselves in the foot?

As far as the 1-piece glass kits, to each their own. I like wing windows and always have. Used to be into Buicks a few years ago and when I got my '69 GS 400 I put '68 doors on it because in '69 they did away with the wing windows.
