    Does anyone have experience with Bob's Classic Auto Glass (on ebay) or PPG's Vintage Glass department. Wondering about quality and how well their glass would fit with KGap rubber. Thanks, Walt-LA

    Walt...



    Check with Paul S in Pittsburg... I saw a post several months back where he was providing information about a glass supplier. Maybe the same folks?

    I bought the windshields for my '49 from Bobs. I had no problems. A nice guy to talk with, and he a Hudson lover.



    I have no problem recommending them. Call them direct I believe I got a better price than on Ebay.

    I have purchased a new windshield (and all new side glass) for my 54 Hudson Super Wasp from Bob's and it is still in the crate; nice guy to deal with; a VERY long distance from me in Tn.



    Yesterday I bought a NOS windshield for my '54 Jet from the following guy, Vic, in Poplar Bluff, MO (3-hours drive, one way); I drove there, put it in my pickup and drove back home.



    Just another source for glass for our Hudson vehicles:

    I've used Vic's Classic Glass too. Great guy, no problems and stands behind his products. I would definately recommend him for all your glass needs.

    I used Bob's too. No complaints on the windshield, but not for flat glass. It took too long to get it. I could have gone to my local guy and had him cut it for less hassle. My 2 cents.
