I've discovered I need a couple of new side window glasses for my '51 Club Sedan (- for the door windows), and am asking if any members can recommend an auto glazier who they have used and can recommend?
Can get two new glasses from Kanter at $110 each but shipping will be expensive so hoping for an Oz provider. Thanks in anticipation!

PS: Great to have this Australian forum - it will be very helpful.

G'day Lee, Welcome to the PACA Site. The more it's used the better it'll get! A number of PACA members have used Ralph Moore Autoglass at Mascot - www.ralphmooreautoglass.com.au/ with good results. But I'd think any good autoglass shop in your vicinity should be to cut, using your old glass as patterns, the glass you require. |

Thanks Mal, I'll get in contact with them.
Unfortunately I don't have the original / old windows. For some reason they didn't come with the car! (Bit of a mystery).
I'll have to get a template made by someone who has a 2-door like mine, and that will likely mean asking a favour of someone in the US. The Convertible windows are a different shape so local guys can't help me with a template.
It's either that or just order them from Kanter, where they are a reasonable $110 each, plus a large shipping fee.

Hi Larry51, I own a business called Glass 4 Classics. If you need new side glass I actually have original patterns for your make and model Packard. We can reproduce the glass for you, all of our glass is CNC cut and edged to ensure complete accuracy and comes stamped to meet all Australian safety standards. Feel free to give me a call on 07 5522 7791 or email me at enquiries@glass4classics.com.au if you still need the glass.  Kind regards, Nathan |
