58 Rear glass Question IMPALA?

Hey guys, I have picked up a rear windshield that was supposed to be for a 58 Chevy sedan. It is nearly identical to a 58 sedan, but it is not quite as tall. The rest of the shape appears to be the same. It is a saftey plate, or zone toughened style.
Could it be from an Impala? Or maybe another GM breed??

Jason, likely an Impala if its not quite as tall. The 58 Impala roofline was lower than the other 2 door 58's and its likely the same upper level Buick, Olds, Pontiac, and Cadillac had the same roof and glass. The only one I wonder about is the Canadian Pontiacs, not sure if US Pontiacs had the same glass or not, but the Canadian Pontiac's I expect were the same as the Impala.
Maybe post the height of the windshield you have and someone here will match that to the height of the 58 Impala.

Has to be Impala. All rear glass were tempered, if that's what you mean by "zone toughened".
