I have just discovered that the 25 year-old windshield in my Super Gas car has a bunch of tiny bubbles in it, which only show up when sunlight hits it at a certain angle. The car is a '73 Vega. Any tips or recommendations on replacement? I plan to get some abraison resistant polycarbonate, just a flat sheet and plan to form it, using the old one as a template. Mine is currently 1/8", plan to replace it with same unless anyone has suggestions otherwise. My car will never be a mega-mph unit, probably max out around the low 150's.

The local plastic shop wants $155 for a sheet that size (24" x 55"). Is this a good deal?

Regards,
