windsheild anyone in NW area?
Anybody know who in the area is up on windsheilds? My windsheild broke .It started at a chip along the bottom edge. The windsheild has some information on it .
VIRACON
Tinted
Safety Float
ASI M50 DOT 129
I don't know if there are any differences and want to get a correct replacement glass at a fair price in a timely manner . Shipping alone is a concern.

I got mine from Classic Roadsters themself. I paid out the nose for it and the shipping was not bad till the added the boxing fee onto it.
Check with Enzo from Finishline on here his might work. I know thats where mine came from!!! I paid for two middle men. Ouch

I was referred by a neighbor to Budget Auto Glass S 54th and Pugetsound. Did a nice job. I got right in ,charged me one hour. Later he asked what a Cobra was. I wouldn't have expected a car guy to ask that.

I used these guys several years back. Good OEM quality and the cheapest I could find.

If you are good with your hands this is an easy change. Much easier than modern windshields.

Mike, if you would like, look up (Bruce Synder) here. He had a windshield break, and had his made out of Lexan, look like glass, and will not break. If you would like, I have Bruce's #, he is out of Spanaway, so close by. Cheers Tom.

Mike,
I bought my lexan windshield from Fast Freddie's Fabrications - Fast Freddie's Lexan Roadster Windshield. Or, if you can find a local vendor that sells Lexan MR-10 you could make a template out of your old windshield and cut your own lexan windshield.

What thickness are the Lexan MR 10 windshields? Been thinking about buying a piece to do a windshield, but not sure what thickness to order...

Shell Valley is the OEM windshield supplier for E-M. I just replaced mine and the dealings with Shell Valley were great in every way. Got it in 4 days, excellent quality and once the frame was drilled, went right in. They supply either the glass or the whole frame. MUCH better unit than the old aluminum E-M part it replaced.
