----Glass----
 
----Im coming up on order time for the 67 442 Im redoing. I would have gone to "OEM Glass" as I never went anywhere else, but tragicly Dale Smith is gone and it appears his family has closed the business. Where are you guys going for date-coded glass these days???......Bill S

Autocityclassic.com does dated glass. I believe they use AMD unstamped glass that we have had positive experiences with. The glass is heavy, thick and fit well. Modern pilkington and PPG(now PGW) is thin. I know that they do LOF stamps not sure about PPG. You can pick up at Carlisle and a few other shows. Hope this helps. Mike

----Mike,,,I was just about to ask about Autocityclassic. Thanks for the info. It seems like I have heard a negative comment or two about them, but I cant find anything now.......Bill S

Pilkington does date codes. I just got a date coded LOF windshield and a door glass two months ago for the black 1972 Formula.

Go to Pilkington Classics - that is the division of Pilkington that does the date coded glass:

----This is funny, Steve, as the guy I talked to at Pilkington actually gave me Auto City Classics in Milwaukees name and number. Thanks for this info though!.......Bill S

I used auto city classics, and the glass was great, and EXTREMELY well packaged.
