Window shopping for a '67 Beau
Permalink  

Hey fellas,

Hoping someone can help lend sum advice.  This summer I want to replace the rear glass on my car (it's original, and heavily scratched) 

The scratches really bug me every time I look in the rear view mirror... (really noticeable in direct sunlight)

 

What parts supplier should l I try contacting to acquire new glass?  I live in the Okanagan/BC.

I've heard great reviews of Auto City Glass in Minnesota. I dealt with them once on a non-glass item and they were perfect to deal with.

Thanks Carl. Do you think Beau's and Chevelle's both used the green tint style glass?

Yes, but I am thinking in 67 we still had our's marked Softray and the US cars had E-Z-Eye if that matters at all to you.

I've dealt with Auto City but both times it was at Spring Carlisle in Pennsylvania. They had the product on site at their booth ( Beaumont/Chevelle windshield and Rustang windshield ). This spring they quoted me a real decent price on a brake dual master and booster.

Great stuff! Thanks fellas, I'm going to place an order with Auto City.

The GM option code is AO2 Glass-Tinted Windshield (...does this indicate the top half is tinted dark) ???

That means the whole windshield is that light green tint and has a dark band about 4" high across the top.
