I'm looking at LMC, Brothers and American Classic. LMC is the cheapest. They all charge about $100 to ship via trucking (ouch!)
Thanks, David | | | | | Joined: May 2005 Posts: 39 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: May 2005 Posts: 39 | I agree with checking with the local shops. I just had a windshield put in by a local shop and including installation it was less than the list price in the catalogs for the glass alone.
One other suggestion... Tell them you want a windshield manufactured by PILKINGTON. The first windshield my shop tried to put in was Chinese made and was 1/2 inch too wide for the cab and would never seal right. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 4,983 Master Gabster | | Master Gabster Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 4,983 | Pilkington does offer glass for classics, however for Chevy & GMC trucks they only mfg. for 1964 and up.

My truck is a 57 Chevy stepside, so it sounds like Pilkington isn't made for that year. Any other good brands you can recommend?

It looks like the part number may be DW407 | | | | | Joined: May 2006 Posts: 8,351 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: May 2006 Posts: 8,351 | Just checked mine, it's a Pilkington, too. Yes, the # is DW407. I had a local glassshop put it in. Cost under $200 installed. I did have to provide my own gasket, though.
