New windshields available
« on: May 11, 2011, 04:26:27 PM »
Classic Auto Glass in Poplar Bluff MO is offering new clear or tinted windshields on eBay for $450 opening bid.  Not cheap but I have never seen them available before.  Check it out if you need one.  I found it under "Willys Aero".  They should fit all Aero's but the 1952 was a split windshield  like the 1951 Kaisers and they can be cut by your glass man to fit the early cars.

The part number for the one-piece windshield is W-325 and that part number is used at any glass place. Iowa Glass also has non-tinted. I've bought from them before and had good service. They also have all 3 pieces of the rear window.

Last I knew, Rudy Phillips still had the weatherstrips for the one-piece windshield with the groove for the stainless inserts that John Parker had made up 25 years ago. He should also have the rear one-piece weatherstrip, also with the stainless. If you have a split windshield, your glassman will have to be creative with the weatherstrip. If you have a Lark without the stainless, you're out of luck, you'll have to use the one with the groove, just don't put stainless in it.
