If the height is the same, should work. I know the Fairlane 500 had a lower roofline. Lower windshield

Wolfpupsdad:

The '58 four door windshield will fit.  '57 and ''58 short wheelbase cars all fit.  Includes Custom and Custom 300 2 and 4 door, Ranchero, wagons. and Sedan Delivery.  As stated above, the Fairlane series are different.

I heard from someone that certain years of the F100 or F150 series of truck front windshields fit our short wheelbase cars.  Is this true or some kind of an urban legend? 

On a slightly different topic, does anyone know if the rear windows for a Custom 300 are being reproduced?

I ordered all new green tinted glass for my Ranchero (including the windshield) a while back.

You might give them a try, they were great to deal with;

(I found this website - www.vintageglass.com - same phone number, but the address is different than what I have on file, guess they moved).
