There is a company advertising in many of the magazines called Shakedown racing, the web address is shakedownracing.com. ...they have lexan windshields for your car and many others....

I went ahead and ordered one from VFN for $225 shipped.

No need to drive to Chicago today for only a $25.00 shipping fee.

I know that this is an old thread. but I thought I would throw this alternative out to all of you that might want a Lexan windshield.
A few months ago. I was helping my buddy out with his 85 IROC he is building. We went to Home Depot and he got a sheet for allot less then it would have cost him to order a pre cut one PLUS the high shipping costs. He laid that sheet over his stock windshield and drew out his cut lines. Cut it out with a jig saw and ground off the edges smooth. It looks great. This was the second time he has done this. Back in the 90s he had a wicked fast 72 camaro he did that on first. Both times they looked pro and never had a problem.
