If you ever need a windshield, try these guys

Thanks but no thanks
I just tried an online quote for them for my kid's car (a c body land yacht) and they came back with $721 and some change. That's about double my worst fear

Yeah...but buying a C body windshield is like buying a Winnebago windshield!

Shopping for windshield glass for my 69 dart, and saw this older post. Does anyone know how this glass thickness compares to OEM glass ? Price looks about $100 than AMD

AutoGlass.net - Auto Glass from $99.00
In many instances these guys use OEM suppliers. The windshield I just got and installed in my '66 is full thickness, made (and delivered through) Pilkington (PPG). One of the nicest quality windshields I've seen in a long time. About $175 out the door (no shipping charge, but there was a $25 "transfer fee" from their Ohio warehouse to Wisconsin).

Thanks. The Autoglass website comes up as the same one mentioned earlier in the thread. $200 for my Dart and an hour drive to pickup. Only thing is it doesn't mention if it's tinted glass or not...maybe I'll look for a phone #

They show a windshield available for my Imperial. I find this highly suspect since nobody else seems able to get one, including vintage glass places. I've got better places to put $630 right now.

The thick/thin glass thing is a real issue, although not all current glass is thin. The replacement glass I bought for my Challenger is thinner than the original, but using a 3/8" v. 5/16" butyl rope puts the glass in the right place in relation to the mouldings. For the little I paid, I'll make it work. I bought front and rear glass for that car, and a windshield for my Valiant three or four years ago. It was under $450 for all three.
