----I remember Dale Smith (RIP) when he was doing OEM Glass and I think you could have driven over a delivered box and find a perfect windshield still untouched inside!.....Bill S

Dale Smith, now that’s a name I haven’t heard in along time. I remember buying glass from him back in the 1980s for my Cuda ragtops. He was a good man.

When I ordered a new date coded windshield for the black 1972 Formula Firebird, Pilkington Glass shipped it in something that could have doubled as a coffin. It was a handmade, wooden rectangular sarcophagus with internal scaffolding that held the glass safely inside. It weighed over 150 lbs without the glass!
