Glass hunt, good yards in panhandle of TX?
I need to find a windshield and side glass for my '62 C10. I have been looking around Amarillo and the one that I found the guy would not part with it. Anyone else know of one in TX, NM, OK, or CO? (driving distance)

There is a guy in Beaver, OK that might have what you are looking for. Russell Tibbits is his name.

A new 60-63 windshield is easily your windshield x 2 for cost, maybe x 3. We are talking about $470 new, so I think you see my dilemma.

It is just a guy that has,(or did have) several old chevy pickups. I priced a windshield for my '64 a couple years ago, and it was only $175.

Re: Glass hunt, good yards in panhandle of TX?
There is a yard here outside Colorado Springs, they have a bunch of those trucks - and a lot of other REALLY rare stuff. The owner is an obsessive-compulsive type so he is difficult to deal with, but I get along with him OK. I can look for you if you want. His number is 719-683-2422, but they almost never answer the phone - yes, the business is really messed up. I personally wouldn't deal with him at all except for exceptional parts selection.
