Need and aftermarket windshield source

Ordering a front glass for my '68 - doesn't have to be original.   Where can I get a quality b-body front glass and gasket delivered?  The car is in northern Middle Tennessee if that matters (or if someone knows a good local source)

Thanks in advance!

AMD sells them, don't they?

They do, and 521 appears to resell the AMD pieces.  Anyone had any experience with AMD glass?   Would it be far cheaper just to go to a pick-n-part type place?

My current glass is cracked all the way up the right side and it's about time to pull the dash, so the glass goes next.

Got both from the local glass guy last year. If i recall the windshield was around $300 and gasket $75.

You can try ECS Automotive concepts as I think they sell the correct reproduction glass in clear and tinted and can put the correct Mopar etchings onto the glass too I think.

Actually the glass goes first.   ;)

I need to swap the windshield one day but it's still good enough.  A bit of delaminating in the lower corners though. 
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

I love my Pilkington.  It's thick, tinted, with blue shade...about $325 from Pilkington Classics.  Got the phone # right off the public website. 

They want to deliver to a local glass shop.
