I know folks who have had windshields made up for street licensed race cars, like Cheetahs, and know show cars get glass done up all the time. I paid $400 for a winshield that was part of a small run in the 80s, so it couldn"t have been too expensive. I"d call someone like John Moss with GM or MetalCrafters in the LA area and ask them where they get theirs. At the same time, I got a side window and windshield for a Simca Aronde by taking a tape measure and templates around several junkyards until I found something that fit well enough to be cut down. I had a rear window trimmed to do the w/s. Finally, as a temp solution, acrylic works fine. Cheers, Bob
