Default Windshield glass source???

Does anyone have a suggestion for a good source for replacement windshield glass for an ERA? Mine is cracked.

I think most of the glass is the same except for maybe the Superformance. I think that Factory Five has about the best prices I've found. There are a couple guys on ebay that sell glass under the Auto Parts section under kit cars or Cobra replicas section.

Also, try Bethania garage, Cobra restorers, Finishline, and a few others I can't think of right now.

Bob,

Thanks. It looks like Bethania or a guy in Kansas on Ebay have the best prices. I have sent them both messages to confirm their parts will fit an ERA. The guy in Kansas includes a new seal.

I have a good friend with auto glass experience. He says the actual replacement is a snap.

I assume ERAs use OEM type glass for a Shelby.
