    i have a 69 A 108 that could use some new glass and i was told that because the glass is flat that i could have someone cut some safety glass of the same size. Is this true? Can you replace the windshields?

    no i grabed the wife and the kitchen soap she was not happy at the moment but once we got it in she was happy she was able to help. i did get all new rubber . you have to keep working the rubber and take your time . you never know what you can find on you tube. (how to) althou it should not cost much to have it installed. BUT get new rubber,$95.00
