Door Glass For Fine Point 29 Closed Cab PU

[phonconn]

Gents, I have mostly used my original parts in my restorations and have used Brattons, A&L, and Berts for most of my reproduction needs but now I am in need of glass for the wife's Closed Cab pickup and Walt Bratton says they don't supply the glass with proper identification for blue ribbon judging. Need a good source for glass with the proper glass ID. Any help out there. 816-213-8437 Dan Bixby

Dan, give a look to Sanders Reproduction Glass. This is the glass I use on the fine-point cars.

Would tempered glass be a good option? No laminated seam. Ive used it on windwings where it works and looks good.

Hi Dan,
You said "proper identification for blue ribbon judging"??? NO MARKING (plain) is correct for your 82-A except for the windshield. You can't get much simpler than that! Is the windshield a problem?

Hey Marco, how are you proposing for Dan to get the windshield logo-ed? Glenn, I had a '28 Sport Coupe outfitted with tempered glass last year just so it would look more like the original plate glass. One other reason why I suggest using Sanders is because they have the capability to put the correct edge on the glass mechanically whereas my local shops just hold the glass up to a belt sander and try to free-hand it. Maybe shops in the Kansas City area would have more capability for Dan.
