Custom cut and installed for only $147.43 TT&L out the door AND they did a really nice job. The installers are car guys and they took extra time to make sure the job was done right.

BUT, the best part: not a speck of rust around the window anywhere.

If anyone needs glass work in the Dallas area, I have a shop I can definitely recommend.

Pics! We need pics! All I can find around here are "We don't carry replacements" and haven't had much luck finding anyone to cut one. Do you have a template?

Well, pics wouldn't show you much, but I'll post if you want. As far as a template, the shop just removed the old window and cut the new one to match. Cutting the window was absolutely no big deal to these folks - I think you just need to check around a little more and find a shop that'll do it for you (or drive to Dallas :D ). Good luck!!

Hey Cecil, When I had a new windshield installed in my 70 SS Elky by Safelite Glass Co. they said they could cut me a new back window for about $150 and I could pick the tint. Don't know if you have them any where around San Diego but you would think someone around there would be able to do it.
