The body shop cracked my windshield while removing the chrome trim.
Who makes a quality window with the correct factory tint and antenna wire in it?
I have a 72'.

Practically any auto glass shop can get you a windshield. If there is a PPG distribution warehouse near you, they may even have one in stock.

Thanks for the reply...
I guess I should rephrase my question..
What I want to know is .....
Has anyone had experience with a specific glass manufacture that has correct looking tint and a quality glass..
I know that Chevelle windshields are available from several different vendors but there is also a lot of sh***y product out there...

PPG was the OEM supplier to GM. I've used 100s of PPG glasses, both tempered and laminated with no problems. I have new PPG windshields in my 67 Elky and 72 Monte(same as Chevelle).
Generally, glass supplied by PPG or LOF is of good quality. The only glass I've had quality issues with is the foreign made stuff which has a high number of flaws, bubbles and distortion.

Thanks... I thought I would be OK with PPG or LOF but I wanted to make sure.
