Anyone know about Shelby putting plastic windshields (not racing windscreens) on original 289's when new? CSX2149, which Tom Cotter and I are restoring, has a plastic material windshield and has an Indiana inspection or permit sticker on it that is dated 1965 or 1966, if memory serves me correctly. That seems very early for such a windshield on a street car in particular.
I have installed a plastic windshield on CSX2401 after cracking two glass ones on the track. I went to the local distributor for the NASCAR boys around here and bought a sheet and cut out the windshield on my band saw. It fits perfectly and is scratch resistent to boot. Anyone need one? I've got enough extra from the sheet I had to buy to make one more.
