Challenger Glass

Post by Anonymous »

Any idea where I should start looking for glass for my 1971 Challenger? Do they still make it? Or should I look at breakers yards.

I know where there is a passenger door glass if you need that one. Don't know if it is tinted or not.

Try Peter Jones on 01582 881260 (Luton). I think that number's still current.

He's helped a lot of people on here over the years with windscreens but I'm not sure how readily available side glass is.

I spoke to him a couple of years ago re a windscreen for our 63, he said they (windscreens in general) are being produced a couple of times a year in the States, so he can be lucky and order one when it's in stock, or at worst order one when there's gonna be a 6 month wait.

I imagine Challenger glass would be easier to get than early 60's stuff :dontknow:

I have a full tinted set apart from the front windshield.

Well if the other stuff doesn't work out for you and you need a full set, its worth looking into getting it from the US.

I did a group buy a while back for Challenger windscreens and went with PS Auto Glass - great service and great price. buying 4 screens made it much cheaper to get em shipped from the US than buying them here, and I think if you need a full set you may find the same.
The windscreens are dirt cheap in the US - about $120, though the other glass adds a lot (slower moving I guess) but you can still get a whole set for $950 https://www.bserved.com/psautoglass/sto ... roduct=426 Anyway if nothing else you have a datapoint.

If you go with them contact Erik, he will see you right.
