I have anti-virus software on my computer that link comes up as "Not a secure site"

I have bought glass from, I had it delivered to the GM nationals at Carlistle last year.
I bought both the windshield and big back window, great prices, but I have not installed either yet.

Mine said unsecured site also, I will keep looking, pretty sure there is more than one source, and hopefully not CHINA…..

Did you get yours through Auto City?
If so, how was the overall experience?
Quality?

Any details you care to share?

I got a windshield for my 64 C10 from auto city glass, fit perfectly !!!

I ordered it on their site, and picked it up at a car show (spring carlisle)

$119 no shipping or tax since I picked it up at the show.

Got mine from classic truck glass…not cheap , but is a NOS part, has all correct markings. Could have gotten 12 of kb65 windshields for what the insurance company paid for freight. Classic was good to work with and kept communication through the whole situation…

I had the front windshield replaced & the same guy did the back glass as well (small to big window conversion) back around 2011-12. At the time I thought my side glass was good to go so the parts were just wrapped-up & sitting on shelves in storage.

Fast forward to a few months ago & I started organizing the parts to begin putting the door stuff back together. It was @ that point I took a closer look @ the glass & saw stuff I didn't want to. So I'm looking for fresh door glass as well as a legit cut BBW glass since the one he did is having issues w/the seal (seal keeps pooching @ the lower corners; 3 diff attempts).

Thus my digging through posts/threads to figure out a good source. Thanks for the info/insight.

I got my door window glass assembled (and lower rail) from them.
Super easy, ordered it online. Came very well packaged with no damage. Great quality.

TY.

I mainly wanted a source that was easy to deal with & that hopefully all the glass is from the same source for consistency (replacing OE green tinted glass).

My local glass shop did my windshield and rear window in OEM green. I installed the door glass from Classic and wing windows from the Truck Shop all in OEM green. I dont get a lot of help in the rural area I'm in so...
