windshield

This may apply to several models.

I may not be sane, but the ’89 Mondial t Cab is used as a daily driver. I still want to keep it looking like new.

On the two day recent drive from Utah to Delaware (and I never drive above 50 mph :=) ), a hair line crack started on the passenger top side of the windshield. There is no noticeable chip and the crack can be seen but not felt.

Several people recommended Union Auto Glass in Little Italy, Willington or in Newark. While looking for them, got lost (did not have the GPS with me) and stopped at the Hotel DuPont. The person at the desk had his windshield replaced at Union. At Union, they said it would be $145 to $185 plus the cost of the new windshield. There is no aftermarket glass (want Ferrari anyway) and it cannot be repaired. Another place says they can repair it; will check it out; but I doubt it.

Went to the Ferrari place just south of Philly – cannot think of their name now. They are getting a price for me.

What should I expect to pay?

Will have to go across the Big Pond in the spring or early summer. Will be shipping back a 40 foot container. Could easily put a windshield in it. How much would I probably save buying it in Europe and where are the best places to buy things like this over there?

In the big snow storm 8 days ago, had to go out for steaks and the Mondial t handled great. Only 4 WDs were doing better. My Mondial t has the Pilot Sport tires on it.

So far the Mondial t starts great even when cold soaked down to about -10 F.

I grew up in the poor side of the tracks not knowing about things like Ferraris. I cannot say that the slice of the pie of life that I have experienced is correct, but so far my experiences with dealers are:

Utah – great
Scottsdale – great
Ohio – joke
Philly - great
