Ingrid,
Check the Swap Meet. RJ from Colorado is parting out several 60-66 trucks. He should have what you are looking for.

Not to be a killjoy, but a used windshield is probably a lateral move at best, when brand new ones are available in safety glass. They are tinted, but they are otherwise correct.

I think you can also get it just tinted, and not shaded.

The problem with buying in the states is the shipping costs and those who are not inclined to send their product overseas. I do not know if the reproductions are an exact fit either. If you do buy a new windshield, buy the new rubber seal too. Here is another 60/63 green tint I noticed that this one does not have the dark tinted band at the top. (If you're looking for something we don't have listed, check our website: www.psautoglass.com, send us an email: sales@psautoglass.com, or give us a call: 866-565-9557. Our hours are Mon-Fri 8am to 5pm.) You can email them or phone them, your choice. You may be able to find something in cape town or they may be able to purchase this for you at wholesale which may help defer some of the sipping costs. At least you have information that you can show the shop owners. Good luck! grin ........g

Well, this great post turned into our July Feature. I thought you all might be interested in a sneak preview before the newsletter is all done.

Piers still is hoping to get some help with the 'Burb windshield. You need to check out the whole story so you can see why!!

South Africa Calling!

Enjoy -- no drooling on the keyboards.

Piers, nice trucks! I did not realize that there were that many "nice" trucks in Africa. After reading your Safari saga I found some info on Ted's auto spares which led to this information maybe this can help grin ........g

You probably already know that 60to63 windshield and door glass interchange and pickup/ suburban glass will interchange.
