Hi everyone
I am Giovanni and just joined
I restored my 69 Road Runner back in the nineties with my son it took us about ten years but we had a blast going to all the rallies looking for parts.
The car was a red 383 stick with bench seats ( not sure on the seats since it was not in car also the motor and trans were missing). It is now a clone 440 six pack 69 1/2 .
because of the time span we lost the fender tag but we do have the dash tag and build sheet Because we have all that info is there a way to have a fender tag remade using that info . We are not trying to make a counterfeit tag just a correct one that will match the was the car was built from factory
 
With the build sheet and VIN try GTS (Galens Tag Service) or ECS there is another I can't think of right now.
 
I enquired on a replacement fender tag and they said about 400 bucks for one. Can use that money to do the build I thought and will may be have one made when the car is finished. Then can list all the improvement's as well.
 
Yea 1968 man that is the one that shattered on me. The one from Metro parts did not even go in the hole. LOL. Thanks buddy.
 
russ, if the glass doesn't fit or shattered, I hate to say this but perhaps time to recheck the metal of the frame and make sure correct. :(
 
Oh no. quickbird going to make a piece of glass fit hell or high water. The old one fits in but tight. So have a line on a few of the original ones. Talked to two different glass company's and they will make me one to fit for 3K. Ouch. So that is not going to happen either. Their is always a way to make things work. Know a guy that has cut down these windows and had success. So get a few old ones to practice on. LOL. Thanks buddy any way's for the thought.
 
Plain and simple.....the glass should not fit tight. You can tell from the pattern on your window the bottom of the glass was under stress. You said the lower corners were tight. I'm guessing you didn't test fit you glass before you painted the car or you would have caught this.
