: HELP - glass man says he can't get clear / non-tinted 70 Chevelle convert windshield
SS454JC Oct 18th, 02, 5:23 PM Hello,
Today I was told only tinted windshields are available for 1970 Chevelle convertibles.
Of course mine has a non-tinted clear windshield.
Anyone know where to buy a non-tinted clear windshield?
Many thanks, Joe
PS - any difference between 70 hardtop and convertible windshields? Thanks again.

BlueSS454 Dec 1st, 06, 7:23 AM www.glasssearch.com. You should be able to get it through Pilkington.
hmott Dec 1st, 06, 8:38 AM I should be glad my glass is tinted huh, I think I'm going to need a new one because I didn't know welding around the windshield was a bad idea. Thats going to be an lesson I didn't expect to pay for.

how close were you? I guess close enough, hehe
hmott Dec 1st, 06, 9:32 AM yeah I was close enough.. its got about 25 or so that I know of little pits in it now. You think they may be able to save it? I was welding in a patch up on the header bow support. I did two small patches before I noticed what was happening and covered the window for the rest.
61pan Dec 1st, 06, 9:51 AM Yea I did that when I first started. I did it around the rear glass though.
