Title: 1959 - 64/65 CC winsheild
Post by: Nicholas Y on January 09, 2015, 06:40:16 PM
I am looking for any information for a new 59-64/65 commercial chassis [64] / limo [65] windshield.  I haven't seen one for sale on ebay for awhile, anyone know how has 1 in stock that can be shipped?


Thanks,
Nick

Hi
I'm also after the same windshield. Have you had any luck??
I have a 59 Superior Hearse. If you find more than one let me know
Thanks Bryce

Gentlemen

If I were you I would consult with a member of the Professional Car Society.  They specialize in commercial vehicles of the era you seek.

Hey guys

I think auto city classics sell the commercial chassis windshields.  Last I checked they were $800.  Hope this helps.

In a nutshell;  the south American made CC glass is pure junk. Hit or miss, if it fits. Most often it is 1/2 inch too wide at the A pillars.  And an incorrect curve at the top. 

Whoever has it at the current timeframe, ask where it came from. 


Here is the latest info on getting a windshield for your 59-64 CC and 59-65 series 75
Timo Taskanin is the contact for a European manufacturer. Its spot on the closest reproduction out there. His email is; ttr.timoemail addresses not permitted
He has a shop here in the states.   I have no idea on the cost.

Of the 44 1963 & 1964 Cadillac parts cars I have brought in over the last 19 years, I have brought in 4 of these windshields (one even driven back from NC to Salt Lake City draped over the front seat of a 59 Sedan DeVille!). I do not have anything right now but do keep a Wait List for all hard to find items. Shoot me an email to jasonedge@nc.rr.com to get on the list as I am sure I will eventually bring more of these in. Just to add, I have also been told the aftermarket glasses is thinner, does not have the correct matching tint band across the top, and often is not a good fit.
