This next picture may slow down your progress and add more work.
It uses two motorcycle windscreens. I really thought you should see this.

You have no idea how many times I have thought about that...
I would love to have to put a helmet on to run to the grocery store!
Damn it, I had just gotten over that concept and now you have to go and bring it up again, it is so tempting.

You just have a solution for everything don't you? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

If I could, I would.

My state wont allow this...though I am going to go back a look into it again.
the rules were safety glass and both wipers....so I could do it...

The rules may say the windshield must be safetyglass. And if there's a windshield there must be two wipers.

I stopped caring about the "rules" along time ago. This car has not been even close to legal for years. I have not run wipers on this car for years and lexan is in this cars future. I am perfectly willing to be hassled to the cops if that means I get to build my dream car.

Custom laminated glass for the windshield is easy to do and most decent glass shops can get it done.
Custom tempered glass for the side windows will cost you dearly.
The hot rod guys I spoke with all use laminated glass for the side windows just due to the price...
Go find a decent glass shop and talk to them...there are glass factories all over the country,,,you just need to make a metal template that is supported from behind with struts to keep its shape. (they will explain it to you)

I think I will just use lexan.
Its lighter and cheaper.
If I am going for the chopped look that I have now I will buy a lexan 914 'shield and cut it down, if I go with the Callaway 'vett look things might get a little more interesting...
