A regular auto glass place was able to get me a windshield for my Cutlass convertible.

I would guess it had to be ordered, or did they have it in stock? Also, do you know who made the windshield as in was it made in the US or elsewhere? Thanks for the help!

I purchased a windshield for a 1971 Cutlass and was told the 1968-72 A-body windshields interchanged. That is all 2 door cars, then the 4 door and wagon's have a different one. The primary difference was the antenna in the glass for the latter years. John

I am having mine replaced by a local auto glass company tomorrow. It only took them 2 days to get it. I have glass breakage on my ins. policy less $100.00 deductable which was waived by the glass company. Cost to me $0.00
