Windshield for a 1965 convertible

Post by Monzaguy »

My windshield has a lot of light scratches. Is there a product out there anyone has successfully used to remove light scratches? And if I end up having to replace it, is a convertible WS different from a sedan WS? Thanks, Mark

1965-69 Coupes, 4-Door, Convertibles all have the same windshield, according to the Clark's Corvair Parts online catalog.

It's a whole lot of work to polish glass but it only wastes a little money and a lot of time if you want to try it. The NAGS code used to shop for LM Corvair windshield glass is DW659 or DW659T (top tint) if you decide to replace the glass on your own.

Thanks Dave, going to try the polishing, but I'm not real hopeful. Probably have to price a new install.
