 Topic: 1980 Upper and Lower Windshield BarsPosted: January-03-2008 at 5:55pm |

As everyone here knows I am deep into my 1980 SN resto and its coming along quite quickly. I just got my trailer back from being extended for easier launching and being powder coated. The boat is about ready to go back on the trailer. The brand new Ford racing 351W just got punched out to accomodate the 408 CID stroker kit and is currently being blueprinted and balanced in Charleston, SC. .....But I hit a speedbump, the company I am working with on the resto lost my upper and lower windshield bars and I am looking for someone who is willing to sell a set or where I can go for new ones...Thanks in advance for your help. I hope everyone had Happy Holidays. Looking forward to hearing from ya Doc.

Nathen, do not have much to say on the subject, other than you have a way of losing a lot of parts,motors and guns.Karma is a bitch aint she............
As far as Happy Holidays, We dont do that in tha Sutton home, and will not spend my money where that phrase is used..... We have A Merry Christmas,aka. Christ's Birth.. We also have a Happy New Year..... Hope these Two seasons and the reason for their being were enjoyed by you and yours. Boat dr |

There's a company in Florida that can make a windshield from scratch or make any parts you need, but none of it is cheap! Here are some notes I made on the subject: windshield replacement If nothing is available for re-use or measurement, $1600-$2200 If footprint rail is available, $1200 and up 813-926-3717. Not sure of what the price would be for what you're looking for, but call em up and I'm sure they can help. Steve |

Nathan....call me sometime and leave a number for me to call you back if I don't answer. I MAY have what you need.. I need a measurement for your bottom windshield bar. I have most/if not all of an 84 SN windshield, minus the glass. I will be taking inventory of EXACTLY what I have today (sunday). I know for SURE that the bottom windshield bar is STILL attached to the hull.....will check for the rest, just thrown in the boat.
BJ mentioned to me that you may need these parts before I saw this post. Maybe I can help. In NC...... Paul (980)581-0006 |
