I guess we don't know enough to know better. Found another. This one is a survivor. We are going to just repair enough to drive. Bought the car locally. Bought car from a guy about 25 said his Grandparents bought it new it was left to him in the will. I think his sisters boyfriend broke all windows out and the four round taillights. We have the taillights from the other project. Will be looking for the windows, a dash and carpet. Will rebuild carburetor. We think that's all for now. Bob & Brian

Looks to be a nice solid car, the windshield is the same as all 2/4 door hardtop and convertibles, around $450, widely available, back glass is toughened and has a good survival rate easy to find also.
What kind of jerk hurts an old car like that?

Looking for the two front door windows, green tint. In frame would make easier. Brian 586 864 5110.

Could it possible that any other GM car of 1960 with the flattop, could be a "donor"?
