    Ok, now I hate ya Jeff. Not a bad hate, just the jealously kind. I cannot
    wait to see this one. '57s are just screaming to be chopped and you are
    their to bless yours with one. Kool, Kool, Kool. Your attentions to wild yet
    subtle detail is just over the top. Keep up the good work and keep us posted on updates.

    Can I have your autograph, I lost the other one?

    Happy Trails,

    Mick

    where did that car come from....a few years back me and breeder stumbled on a guy named Adolf in Burlington IA that had 2-57s one coupe and one convert. he had sold them at one point to a cat in canada, but the dude couldnt get them across the border and had to bring them back?!!?. both cars were drivers and pretty nice, both were that funky yellow. at the time a guy could of had em both for 5 large.

    Jeff, I had a phone # sumwhere for PPG that I got from the bodyshop I have bought windshields from in the past. I called 'em up and they gave me the part # and a price ($575.00) but they had it ready to ship. I can try to dig that # up if ya need it.

    Hey Jeff,

    I've got a friend that just bought out an old Gl*** Co. He purchased over 50
    windshields. He is going to check to see if he has one.....................

    I'll let ya know.

    Happy Trails,

    Mick

    My mistake. I didn't realize the Eldorado and Coupe De Ville were different. Hollander shows the CDV and Roadmaster having the same windshield.
