I need to replace the side window glass om my 36. It is not the original glass, someone replaced it along the way and has now completly frosted over. Who puts out the best glass for replacement? Thanks, Frank
 
My 36 did not have any side glass in it and I lucked out and found a glass shop that had the old patterns. My suggestion would be to find a good local glass shop and use your existing glass as patterns. Ed
 
As Ed says, use a local shop to cut new glass, BUT be sure they cut it where there are no logos showing anywhere, then contact Roy Nacewicz and buy his kit to put Ford bugs on the glass yourself. Good luck.
 
I use Auto City Classic, Isanti MN for all my cars- they have patterns for everything I have needed! Their phone is [763]444-5880....Sam Clay, Spring Hill, FL
 
Thanks, one problem i;m not sure about is the fact that i am replacing "newer" glass that fogged in the laminattion. Is their a way to prevent it? I will contact the sources that were recomrnded. Thanks for the help. Frank
 
I also got all my glass for 36' truck from Chris Blattie, in dark gray tint, and he boxes everything up real nice in wood box with handle, he is in Montana, and will answer all questions with good communication. All glass for a 36' truck was around $300

Because you are using a copy of a copy for a pattern, don't miss a slight taper in the 2" run toward the front of the glass. Tape your arms while working in the door. The taper in the 2" run is important. You'll see why.
 
Fomocoloco, because i have not pulled the door apart yet i'm not sure i understand the part about the "slight taper" in the 2" rum. can i call you to get more details? Frank
