1965/66 big car windshield interchange?
 
Hey guys, I'm curious to see what front windshields are interchangeable with my 66 cat convertible? Are they the same as hardtops? What about new ones? Do they make them anymore? Cost? I most definitely appreciate any wisdom and possible leads! Thanks, Adam

I just had a new windshield put in my 1965 Bonneville and 1967 GP convertible, so yes, brand new ones are easily available. It should be under $300.00 installed.

A sedan and a hardtop windshields are different. A hard top windshield is at least an inch shorter in height than a sedan windshield. :)

It is the same windshield in all B and C body convertible GM cars from at least 65-68.

Hey thanks you guys, every post was helpful. I think I may just pick up a new one and have it installed. I would ask though, with the new ones does the quality seem to be ok? Thanks, Adam

The new one was 1/3 thinner than my original but it is fine.
