Splitty glass

Post by white_356 »

I am in process of restoring a 1960 Splitty. I have all the glass except the small rear window and front sliding windows - all flat glass.

The existing side window glass panels are for fixed window type installation and slightly oversize to fit in pop out window frames. Ideal would be to have them cut to size. I went to PG Auto Glass Centurion whom informed me they only fit glass and cannot cut them for me. They also cannot supply glass for such old cars

Any suggestions as to where I can go to assist me and if cutting existing glass panels is at all possible.
