OEM side window glass?

Anyone know where I can get a set? The repop set I have look great but do not match the same dimensions as the originals.

Re: OEM side window glass?

try going to local glass shop with your originals and see if they will cut you a set to match

Re: OEM side window glass?

OEM glass is tempered, which is to say it is heat treated after it has been cut. That takes very special equipment. Flat glass cut in a shop would be lamented, or safety glass... Not the same. I may end up that way, but I would just as soon not.

I got my glass from Mikes Bump and Grind garage and it fit perfect on my 72. Might want to give them a try. Good prices and excellent to deal with.

I have two you can have if you come get them. The only problem is one seems to be tinted a light greenish color so it may not be stock. Both were removed from a 69 parts truck.
