I fully agree with some of the above positive comments.

I worked for a couple of auto glass distributors back in 1978-79 & windshields (which are laminated) we built even better back then as far as I'm concerned - they were a bit thicker glass than today's windshields. If you find a good used windshield & it is not de-laminating, then it will not start. The plastic they use to laminate the two sheets of glass together is tough as nails & stays clear. Just don't chip any of the edges of the glass - removing a windshield from a vehicle has to be done very carefully - do it slow & careful.

On an interesting note, the first distributor I worked for had all kinds of brands of glass - PPG, Carlite, LOF, Mopar, etc. We had a Mopar clear Superbird back glass in stock - in the cardboard wrapper. I could have probably bought it for $70.00 & really wanted to, but $70.00 was way more than I could afford back then. Those were the days.
