    Getting my 74 two door repainted this winter and will want to replace the windshield due to a deep scratch from a bad wiper blade. I already have the seals from Autokrafters or Melvins (forgot which). Is there a good source for a windshield ?
    I saw that Melvins has them but they are shaded and and extra $110 shipping cost.

    I have them checking into that for me now.
    Are they decent quality?

    The FRONT Windshield is still available at many glass shops.. The REAR , and the SIDES are almost non existent as far as Retail Purchase... Best find another Maverick/Comet Person and get them if you need them in the future .
