Default Windshield Replacements

Does anyone know of a source for either original or high quality replacement windshields. By high quality, I'm referring to a windshield that has minimal distortions where the glass curves.

I had a leaky windshield that a local vendor "replaced" (I think he took to original out and resold it - but told me it had gotten broken when removing it). The new glass has distortions in it that are so bad, it sometimes gives me headaches when I drive the car. This was awhile ago and the guy's pretty much an incompetent jerk anyways, so going back for an exchange would be a waste of time.

I'd like to find a reputable vendor (in California, if possible) to replace/install new (or original - if I can get it) glass.

I've got a '64 coupe.

Thanks - Corey
