Need new windshield or an old salvaged one?? Help!!!

[aerinah]

Hey again it's me

We've been trying for some time to locate a windshield for our boat (1968 Glastron Swinger V-177) without any luck. I've tried the glastron website (no such luck) and I've even tried calling glastron dealers in this area because it's so old they can't help me and the website is a dead end for me... Hoping someone here can point me in the right direction to find a reasonable priced walk through windshield with rounded corners Anything will help I'm sure...

Thanks in advance and happy boating!!!!!!!!

windsheilds are a real pita !

iboats has them.......measure three times !

im looking for long wing windows for my 69 ray.......im going to have to make some kind of extrusion for them.....

depending on where you are located.....there are some marine salvage yards around......florida has several.....and im guessing calif as well.

good luck !

I found two places that replace windshields. They are Custom Mold and Tint, Inc. Monticello, AR, They have a web site. The other is for wrap around windshields. Campbell Manufacturing Co., , Dallas, Tx .

I rebuilt my own out of lexan, and if you need it to curve you can heat it up and press it with a mold or a jig

I would watch EBAY - There are several listed now, and each week a few new ones pop up.. I am also looking for parts for my windshield.

Do you have the frame? Aren't those windows all straight (2 fronts 1 center, and 2 sides)? If so plexiglass would be any easy fix.
