I am currently working on restoring my boat and I have just finished painting it. I just need to get a new windshield and some seats. Especially the windshield. Does anyone know where I can get one? Any help would be great because I cannot find one anywhere and it did not have one when I received it so I have no template. Thanks.

I was hoping for an original one plus the one that I need is kind of odd because of the way it wraps around. Thanks though.

as far as an origonal.....uh....needle in a haystack.....anything your gonna get used is gonna be allmost toast....and new will be just short of impossible...

try fiber glassics...


.but i suggest iboats as well...they will custom fit...and help you measure.

I guess really what I am asking for mostly is where I can get the windshield frame. I could make a replacement shield but I need the frame.

doesnt look too bad...fairly common

check iboats for that type of extrusion....

also...depending on where you live there may be a few marine werckers in the area.

WROSALES- How's this project coming? I just bought a CV-16 today and she needs work! Haven't tested the motor yet (115 Merc) but it looks okay and the boat didn't have any soft spots, etc. Small crack on the transom, but all in all okay (trailer, boat, motor= $200).
I'm curious about where you've found most of your OEM parts? (boat-junk-yards?)
I'm super cheap, so this has to be a project on a dime!
