  • Anyone need 1962 Caddy Hearse Glass?

    I am pretty sure that's what I have. Curved (tinted at the top) windshield, 2 curved side windows, 1 flat one (the other broke) and the back window. The windshield does have a hairline crack on the bottom but hopefully a skilled person can fix it! I'm in Texas.

    Hey there,

    Post a couple of pictures of what you have with the measurements. That would be helpfull. Do you have any other pieces of the car? I have a 62 Cad and am looking for pieces.

      It's rainy and cold today in Texas so I am not wanting to do pictures yet but I did measure...Here's the aprox.
      top of windshield 5' 1/2" at the top curve
      middle of windshield 6' 10 "
      bottom curve is about 5'
      The windshield has a curving crack at one side that probably curves around about 7". I know my husband had planned to repair that at one time so hopefully someone can...he never got around to it.

      back glass-35' at longest part...oops I forgot to do width

      2 curved side glasses-21 and 1/2 " x 14"

      1 side glass-29" x 14 1/2"

                When you can provide accurate measurements and pictures of rear loading door glass, I'm 95% confident IDing it. Side glass won't be quite as easy but providing straight ahead profile shots will help. Don't add any additional angles when taking these pictures.

                Windshield, as others have suggested, is the same from '59-'64 CC (+ '65 limo). Not easy to find. They typically start cracking on the wraparound portion. Fixed or not, I don't see that windshield being worth more than $200-250. (No, I'm not lowballing trying to purchase.) It'll be a stop gap measure for someone in close proximity who doesn't want to add shipping charges until a better piece is procured.

                      Reproduction windshields were made in the US until about a year ago. Not available perpetually; as small runs were made. When sold out, another run would await enough interest to move a few. They were $1400ish. Within the last year, production went offshore (I believe China) and price dipped to $900. Big money drop. As such, good used windshields dropped accordingly.

                            Anyone following Ross' posts already knows that he can't read - or interact well with others.

                            If however by some long shot you do have Superior corner glass, I strongly suggest not selling to this Uterun trash. Just because your prefrontal lobes remain undamaged by whatever misfortune befell him does not mean that he won't perpetually be problematic. There are many others here more deserving (and in need) that are more laid back, not having impatience nor anger issues.

                            Still willing to ID glass after pics are posted.

                              I don't think these are the same windows. Mine side glass is 21 1/2" in x 14".
