Need windshield for 1964 Ford Fairlane Thunderbolt!

[V8tiger]

I messed up and broke the windshield for my 1964 Ford Fairlane thunderbolt. I’m matured the end of my build and was installing the windshield and cracked and broken in two.  Does anyone have any suggestions of what I should do? I’ve looked on eBay. I’ve looked at vacuum forming. I’m sure this has happened to a few of you out there I’d appreciate any suggestions and thank you in advance.

Shouldn't be difficult to replace the glass with thin clear plastic sheet.

Looks way better than the "too thick" kit glass anyway.

 

I use .007 clear "lay film" on pretty much all of my projects now unless the glass is some wild wrap around with compound curves.

Anything relatively flat is quite easy to replace with sheet plastic.

 

Couple of examples.
