Glass help

[Royal Ryser]

Has anyone purchased glass from Vintage Glass USA ? I don't think I have seen a comment about their products or service.
Any help much appreciated.

Just last week Recieved a pair of rear door glass for a friends 40 fordor. Glass was cut too short and the radius in the top rear was too short and left a big gap when the window was rolled up.Laid the two new glasses on top of one another and they weren't the same. Called them and they said they were cut from original patterns. My question was which glass cause neither one of them was the same. Still trying to get refunded. And it took 6 weeks to get the glass. Here's a picture of the new glass laying on top of the old glass.

I always get my glass cut locally and use the "bug" kit from Roy Nacewicz. Just tell them you do not want any logos on the glass they cut.

Another vote for Street Rod Glass in Riverside. Did the windshield for my '39 p/u and provided great install advice since I was doing it myself.

Vintage Glass USA cut all the glass for my Merc. When I asked if they needed the old glass for a pattern, they said they had the patterns and needless to say the glass was perfect. Of course this was not done thru the mails as I live within a short driving distance from their location in CT.

Bought glass for my 36 coupe from them. First w/s glass would not come close to fitting the frame and didn't match my original one. Second one was almost as bad and I had to have it ground down to match the original. Cost me $70. Door glass did not match exactly side to side. I haven't tried the rear window yet. Quarter window glasses fit well. I was really dis appointed in the quality and fit.

Roy Nacewicz at one time had a glass company, as I recall the name was Carleton
Glass. If I'm correct we know that glass would be perfect.

Thanks to all who answered. I ordered from Street Rod Glass. I'll let you know the outcome when I get the glass.

[Royal Ryser]

Received the glass from Street Rod Glass in good shape. I will be installing soon. The glass appears to be good quality. I'll know more after it goes in.

Looks like someone got over zealous with the sanding belt.

Can Street Rod Glass add the "bug" to the glass as well?

[Royal Ryser]

I don't know. You could check that out on the internet.

Chris Blattie of Billings Montana is top notch. Can be found on H.A.M.B. Montana Glass I think it is called.

Also, Sanders Reproductions. Great work and adds correct Ford Bug.

Have used both and always good, especially Chris Blattie. Top notch.
