Trying to cut a windshield to size, unless you are a professional glass cutter, is a very bad idea. You will probably ruin a good windshield. Try www.vintageglass.com. They have a lot of hard to find glass, usually in the $275 range plus shipping.

I don't even think it's possible to cut laminated glass is it?

Laminated, yes. Tempered, no.

 

[karel]

so I'm guessing in a 67 they are laminated?

The windshield is laminated, the rest of the glass is tempered.

thank you all,have a few emails out to windshield places to see if they know the right measurements, before I cut

How do you plan on cutting?

 

[karel]

diamond rip glass cutter,cutting both sides, and when does tap ever softly and if that goes well spray rubbing alcohol on edge that you cut and life it on fire to deal everything in
