My project car has the infamous windshield frame rust. My body guy says we can save at least $300 if we can find a good used frame. Does anyone know of a source for this part?

Contact Paragon Corvette, or J & D Corvette
They're on opposite sides of the US, but both have used parts like that.

A good restoration shop should be able to BUILD one on the car. Had mine done over the winter. Removed windshield without breaking it, repaired the frame, replaced the windshield, resealed the wiper compartment for less than what you are going to save. BUT, I am a fur piece from Idaho. Thumbs Down

Why are all vette owners and repair shops in... Pennsylvania? I'm seeing a pattern here. Tongue
