    Can anyone tell me if the windshield in a 71 Maverick can be sourced from a different vehicle ie mustang etc? Broke mine fitting it today! so fed up as I dont have any chance of getting one over here and I cant race with a split screen.

    Any advice would be apprecieated.

    Regards

    Phil

    they're available in europe.
    veterania.se is a swedish company that makes them.
    i ran into the same problem when installing my windshield. they're of course cheaper in the us, but shipping was always a dealbraker.
