rear windshield source for 365 GT4 2+2??

Rear glass for a 365/400/4001 in the US is the "holy grail". If you're in Europe you have a better chance of finding one. In the US expect to pay HUGE $$.

 

I am a big fan and owner of a lot of different cars, and 2 cars that I own have groups that have assembled enough people to make a run of windshields.

The Deserter GT group, and the 53/54 Skylark Club each have commissioned batches of windshields.

tom had a run of daytona rear glass made, he can probably fill you in on the details

 

There is a manufacturer in Finland that usually has glass for most older cars..They shol
uld be easy to find..they were very prompt and professional when I inquired about 400 windshield a few months back..I spent several hours yesterday trying to locate them for you..alas..I can't find it, but will try again..they had both front and rear glass in stock..this is modern formula..not the original crap..remember.. that if you buy a 30 year old piece of "original" glass your getting just what you took out..heart-ache..."Pay me now or pay me later"... Good night and good luck..Jacques

 

Hi,
the windshield-supplier in Finland is here!
My company manufactures windshields for almost any (series-production and some done in a few pieces only) classic Ferrari,as well as for other sportscars, too.
We have the 365/499 GT/4 2+2 front glass available, as well as the heated rear-glass, too (although the rear is done only in larger batches, so is available only periodically as we do none to stock...)

We mainly supply car-manufacturers and carrozzerias etc. with their special needs (low quantities to one-offs).

Send me a private mail if you haven't found a glass closer by yet!
-we do have shipments going all around the world all the time, so maybe there's something going your way soon to share in freight-costs (?) !

Let me know how it works out, I am thinking of redoing my 365 rear window (and will respray the car at the same time).

 

Hi, Rich!

Good news;
We finally have another small batch of the original-style heated rear-glasses for 365/400 GT/4 2+2 coming out of the ovens in late January 2009!!

If you have interest, please send me private mail, and I'll keep you posted!
