Default Exploding side glass in Camaro!

Yesterday I opened up the garage to find that the passenger side glass in Joes 69 Harrell Camaro had exploded into a million pieces. There was nobody in the shop from 4PM Sat till 1PM Sun. The temp never dipped below 50 degrees and the window was rolled up. Has anyone ever heard of this occuring? I am baffled...BKH

Someone with a key entered the shop over the weekend, rolled down the passenger window, and sprinkled shattered glass on the floor. It's a rather good April Fool joke, don't you think?

No it's not a good April fools joke. It is a mystery to this point...BKH

BKH,
Several years ago, when the Nova was almost new, the back glass completely shattered while sitting in the front our building. In this instance, I believe the angle of the sun may have caused mine? I have also had a patio door do the same thing? Was Joe's Camaro sitting where the sunlight could have hit the side window? Just a thought!!! I think everthing would have to be just right for this to happen, but think about a magnifying glass when held toward the sun at the proper angle, will cause a tremendous heat build up.

It was the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy-that's who done it!! They want everyone to buy a new SUV. You see, they don't understand that some people can only afford to own an older model 1969 car, like your Camaro. You poor pitiful wretch. When I become President my first act will be to give you a new Yugo in place of that decrepit old thing.
