Need a good back glass for a Custom or C300 sedan.  Would prefer somewhere in the southeast.  I live in Mississippi, but will be going to Tennessee in December around Christmas, and can pick up then.  Let me know what you have..

I'm picking up my 57 later today from The Glass House, one of the Southern California classic car glass specialists.  He was unable to find any sources for a re-pop of the rear glass.  Too bad, because I think there would be plenty of interested 57 sedan owners.  If you locate a source for a couple of NOS or nice rear glass, please let me know.  Good luck.

Thanks Bobm that's what I was afraid of.  I found a source for new front windshield in Missouri.  I dont even mind used glass as long as it is not delaminating.  I'll let you know if I find something..

Oh, I should have posted back here that I have one.  Thanks 57Cust300....
What kind of other parts do you have to get rid of?  Good trunk lid maybe?

   Here's 3 sources for rear glass:  PPG Vintage-877-855-8100 or Pilkington Classic-800-848-1351 or Phillips Classic Auto Glass-573-785-1927 ask for vick. All 3 said they could get repopped laminated rear glass from China for about $350 or tinted for an xtra $100, but each has a different delivery date!  "Bob" what about Steve Pierce in 29 Palms or Kolar up in Hesperia, they should have a few used ones around. A friend of mine just got one out of a '58 that had been sitting for over 20 yrs. that had a layer of dirt on it and cleaned it up,there's not a chip or scratch on it,like new with the original Fomoco script on it! Where there's one,gotta be a couple a more out there. KID
