or finish my '64'
Hi guy's.
I picked up my new cab glass yesterday.
I went for real auto glass ,cost more ,but it came with polished edges and marked with Australian standards,.

Okdokey Alan.
It's 6mm green float toughened grade A safety glass,
I bought it thru a local company,Gregs Glass,
He had it made by National Glass,.
Here it is in the chromed quarter window frames ,I just need to find something to hold the glass into the frames,
Do you have any idea how this can be done.

There`s a glazing rubber that goes around the edge of the glass and hangs over the sides, you put that on the glass and push it in the frame, the glass guy you got the glass from should have it!.

That looks real nice! Has it got a green tint to it or is it my tired eyes?
