Do you mean part 3939?



Going by the data collected on Peeron, this part first appeared in 1978. For the next ~13 years, the part only appeared in transparent colors.

At the risk of picking nits, I seem to recall that this piece in my old Space Cruiser from 1978 was opaque blue.

Too right -- sorry, I neglected to look at the history of decorated elements. Sorry. But I think my point is still valid -- part 3939 was designed/intended to be used as a windshield, not a roof.

Sure, but it’s a rare day that I get to call someone on a parts-related question, given my usual specialization. Let me enjoy a few minutes of neener neener, if you please!

Dave!
