Glass
« on: June 29, 2013, 01:41:56 AM »
Has anyone used Bobs Classic Auto Glass in Eugene Oregon?   They have a lot of the glass for KF cars.  They even have the front windows for 51 Kaiser.  Anyone have bad experience??  All I am finding only good reviews.  They advertise on Ebay.

Have you tried a local glass company? When I did the flat glass on my 57 I took my samples to a place and they cut the glass there.

I need the two doors for my 52 Henry J and the two moveable wings.  3 local glass shops quoted me over $300 for 4 pieces.  i have old delaminated and cracked windows to use as template.  Bobs Classic Auto Glass is $180 + $30 Shipping, for $210 total.  They are considerably cheaper.

Oregonians are cheap because no sales tax too.  Lol

Bobs classic auto glass in Eugene oregon sent me the two door windows and two wind wings in 5 days.  Just had my local glass shop set the windows in the frames for only $10 each. 
Highly recommend them.
