Pilkington Classic Glass
 
looking to order a complete 6 piece glass kit for my 68 camaro. Where is the best place to order pilkington classic. Also how does the green tint look? my car is blue so i am not sure if i want the green or if i should go clear and aftermarket tint. any info would be great thanks.

Don’t go green tint.
I don’t know anything about Pilkington glass.
Mine was different brand. And they would grind the edging corners too much. Think wind noise and leaks.
I called them and they sent me glass without corners ground too much for free.
I like tinting on glass but not GREEN for your paint color.

I went with Auto City gray internal tint glass and they did a nice job. Lead times are a bit longer than normal, so plan ahead if they don't have it on the shelf.

That looks great thank you for the info. I am glad you were happy with the fit. I will take a look at them.

Pilkington Thumbs UP
 
I have used Pilkington on two builds. Great guys to work with, excellent quality glass, finished nicely on all edges. They will even work with you and put all the original OE logos for LOF and the other stuff if your doing a full blown restoration. I have been super happy with all my interactions with them.

I went with Pilkington and am very happy with it. More importantly the glass installer was very happy with it. I'm car buddies one of the auto glass place in town. He sold it me at cost and charged me a couple hundred to install. Gray tint.
