69 windshield order cancelled by summit

[Richard R.]

Ordered my pilkington date coded windshield in early June from summit racing for my 69 L46 convertible. After having the order delayed every 3 weeks since then, today they (pilkington) told Summit they are not doing any custom date coded glass and cancelled my order. #$@#^@!#$%!@#$@%!

Any suggestions for a plan B?

Thanks,
Rich

I used Auto City Classic, for my 1970 windshield with date code. https://www.autocityclassic.com/classic-auto-glass/

Used Auto City Classic on my 57. No complaints.

Just talked to auto city classic after trying a few other avenues for pilkington. ACC does date code for extra charge. No clear option for windshield. Glass not made in the USA, but then apparently none is anymore. They claim to follow NCRS guidelines. Probably order from them.

I ordered a tinted Pilkington Windshield for my 66 Coupe back in 2018. As you can see from the label, it was made in early 2016 in Mexico.IMG_E2083.jpg
