    Fairlane Glass

     



    I need every piece of glass for a 1963 Ford Fairlane Sedan.

    or a parts car I can take it from.

    Or if you just know what other cars glass would swap over, that would help me in my search too

    Thanks,
    --Gibbs

    fyi the car looks like this
    So I says to myself, self I says...........
    ...turning around I noticed I wasn't there... so...who was I speaking to ? and if they didn't reply why didn't I ? That remains my greatest concern to this day

    I like the lexan sides idea...how does lexan hold up to scratching and maintaining clarity though compared to regular glass?

    What I was contemplating doing was just using something to make a template, then going to a glass shop and having some made up for the sides...I don't think it should cost too much, but I haven't priced it out yet.

    btw...the rear window is more expensive than the front from that company you quoted? That just seems odd. But I guess it's a matter of demand, windshields are in more demand so the price can be lowered (because of the quanities made).

    I may have the glass in a parts car at the farm and am not that far from you and will sell in Canabucks. I will see what I have. Probably don't have a good windshield, but may have the rest. I will check tomorrow. Pat
