I wouldn't recommend them on a street car.



Where did you order these windows from? I know it says pro glass but i went on their website and their products don't come up... interested in doing this on my race car.

It's been a few years since I had them made and don't remember what they cost. Best bet would be to call them.

I don't have other pictures of the windows.
Is there something specific you'd like to see that isn't visible in the current photos?
I can easily take other pictures that you may need.

I don't remember how thick they are.
I know there wasn't a choice on thickness when I had them made.

All three pictures I posted shows the catch that holds the window in at the top.

I could've made the car a bit lighter but....
I had to add 200#'s of ballast just to make class weight.

Wish I was gonna have that problem. I can be 2750 for 632 and 2800 for 8.50 and there's no way I won't be 200 lbs over.
