Good morning guys. I've got a project planned and am hoping someone can help, or direct me in the right direction. I've had no luck on Ebay. I need the glass from an FM '55 Chevy hardtop. I have the top, just minus the glass. I want to keep it a surprise until it's done. Thanks for any and all help. I do appreciate it.

not sure if these would help Geno, considering you have already tried ebay but?
eBay item number:335561908552
eBay item number:286053437025
there are links to other cheap 55s there as well
good luck with it

Thanks Geoff, I have a windshield from the FM convertible, I thought they'd be the same, nope. Way more curvature. I tried modifying it, but that left gaps in the upper corners. I've even looked for the whole top or a cheap FM '55 Pontiac to try the top. No luck yet, but I won't give up, lol.😁

Geno, I have a 57 Chevrolet Hardtop sitting here, that I bought for the front end. The roof paint is bad, but the glass would work. Let me know.

@carsman1958 Oh man, John, that would be awesome. I'll take the whole top if that's ok? I'll just switch it out from the convertible parts. My plan was to paint the top Charcoal anyway. I'm actually trying to convert my '57 Bonneville into a hardtop. Let me know if I owe you anything, I just appreciate the help. Again, thank you.💯👍😊

@geno Hello Geno: Just send me your address and I will get it shipped out to you. Maybe you can make something out of it. Email me at jnndiecastking@yahoo.com

@perrone1 Tony, if this works like I think it will, you can count on it. This will be like a Bonneville prototype hardtop Pontiac never built.😊
