Got a price for a replacement windshield.
Called a local glass guy and they can have one in two days. Installed it's $234, which I thoughtwas a good deal. Maybe in the spring.
Something wrong with this price?

I took the old one out myself, wanted to cleanup the frame and paint...and inspect for rust. An installed new windshield performed in my garage was $225. They gave me a discount since the old window was already out. It sure is nice to look out through new glass.

I don't know, I just thought that since it's a "Vette" it'd be about $400. I'm psyched now. Just gotta get the windshield wipers to work.

Got a quote for $160 or so installed in the driveway from Safelite auto glass. 1-800-800-ASAP for a quote. After they give you the price, tell them you are going to shop around. They will give you the lower price to do the deal on the phone.

My windshield is in good shape, but I just had to take a peak at this topic to see if I fall out of my seat 
, not too bad IMHO
