    Apparently there is a place in Arizona that can supply glass for vintage cars... Does anyone have the name?

    Thanks!

    If you can find an old glass shop, they may still have all the old patterns, if it's flat glass you are needing..

    I have yet to find a glass shop that cannot do flat glass if that's what you are looking for. If it's for your TR6 you might have to find a place like Moss that specializes in British cars.

    I've used Street Rod Glass in Riverside CA. 951-789-8870 for glass on at least 6-7 deuces. Perfect fit every time. I also like them because I can have the side and rear glass tempered for the same price as laminated..

    I can cut flat glass, unless you want it in one piece and to fit your application.:)

    YOU do not go to that shop that says they will change your windshield in your driveway. You go to that old third generation run shop that is still in it's old building in the old business area of town (unless they moved) that is a full service glass shop. If they don't have patterns for older glass they can make them and if you have old samples that came with your car so much the better. You might check with Spinner Auto Glass as they cut glass for heavy equipment and trucks.

    While I'm a helluva good guy, i still require somewhat of a profit margin to stay in business lmao! Had a guy tell me many years ago, you've gotta make money from your friends because your enemies won't trade with you :cool:
