Hi guys,
I'm restoring a HQ coupe and i am looking for glass. Front, rear screens and the 4 side peices (doors and qtr).
i have been i contact with Rare Spares, Roadrunner windscreens etc..
i was wondering if anyone has bought HQ repro glass before and they could recommend a company. Price isn't really an issue as i want the glass to be a good fit and of good quality.
Thanks and i look forward to reading your comments and advice,
John

Hi John,
You mentioned that you had been in contact with Roadrunner Windscreens.

Bob, I thought 37 body styles were only made in Sydney and Melbourne in the HQ-X.
Feel free to correct me if I have it wrong.
