Auto Glass

Windshield and door glass are generally considered to be very durable, and replacement is usually performed in case of damages like cracks and holes. But actually the windshield of a vehicle is constantly deteriorating. As you drive small particles of windblown sand and dirt make tiny pits in the glass, and after a period of years, this damage can significantly reduce visibility and endanger your and your passengers' safety, especially when the sunlight or oncoming headlights strike the glass at the right angle.

Side Window Repair & Replacement

Side door glass becomes scratched or chipped from sand and dirt. Particles can be trapped in the door seals and slowly abrade it over time as the window is raised and lowered. There are repair methods that will help remove minor scratches, but for deep pits and scuffs as well as cracks and holes, replacement is the safest and most efficient option. Whether you are restoring a classic auto or repairing a daily driver vehicle, we have the right products that will meet all your needs.

Safety & Structural Support

Most drivers don’t realize it, but the windshield is a safety feature as well as a structural component that adds rigidity to your vehicle's cabin. All windshields are constructed from laminated safety glass, which has a layer of polyvinyl butyral sandwiched between two layers of tempered glass. That construction allows a windshield to stay together even when broken preventing injury that could be caused by large jagged shards breaking off. Minor stone chips and cracks don't pose a significant hazard, but the major impact damage and cracks could compromise windshield integrity. It’s obvious then, that its repair should not be taken lightly and you should pay special attention to the process of repair and replacement.

Complete Your Restoration Project

Even without major damage, a windshield becomes unusable after many years of pits and scratches caused by dust, sand, and windblown debris, and this especially applies to older classic cars. You wouldn’t bolt a set of rusty bumpers onto a freshly painted and perfectly restored classic car, so why reinstall worn-out glass? No matter how great the vehicle looks or functions mechanically, the view out of such a windshield will make it feel like you’re driving an old beater. If you want your vehicle look perfect to the smallest detail, then browse through our selection where you can find everything you may want beginning from single parts to complete glass kits for popular classic and muscle cars in tinted and clear.

Small Components to Consider

If you’re doing the restoration, no doubt you will need more than just the glass. All the related parts are just as old and traveled the same miles. It doesn’t make any sense to install new glass and reuse old and worn out guides and stops that could cause the window to rattle and be out of position. On our virtual shelves, we offer superior individual parts as well as mount kits. Many older classic and muscle cars had vent windows that is why we provide a comprehensive array of complete replacement assemblies. In addition to the glass itself, most of them include:

• Frame. It holds a windshield/side window glass securely in place.
• Molding. It wraps around a windshield covering the gap between its edge and the body of the vehicle helping to keep it in the appropriate position.
• Weatherstripping. It is the rubber material used to seal the edges of a windshield and side windows in order to provide weather resistance and air insulation for noise reduction.
• Handles. They are the most frequently broken parts. Actually, they are available in multiple designs and can be had separately. So many car owners consider them one of the easiest ways to give their interior an extra touch of style.
