Hi Guys, I am new to the forum. I just bought a 1966 Mustang and I am looking for a new or good used windshield and stern light bar socket. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Pat |

Hi Pat,
Welcome to the site. I am one of the other 66 Mustang owners. What the heck did they do with those windshields? LOL... I don't have one either. I did call a local glass company and they "can" make a new one to your specs. Again, welcome. This is the place to be for correct craft owners and "fans". A wealth of information on this site. |

Welcome Pat. Last year I bought a new windshield from Taylor Made after being hounded to death by forum members I won't mention  I ended up with a 15" high 58-61" wide. It's kind of on the short side,the top frame is sometimes in the line of sight and the new ones don't have vent wings.But I do like the looks of it tho.The one Tim found above I think will be too wide.If I was still looking for one and could get it for a good price,I'd be tempted to cut it down the center and make it narrower and seam it back together for that original glass look.------------- http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=1711&sort=&pagenum=1&yrstart=1966&yrend=1970" rel="nofollow - 69 Mustang HM SS 95 Nautique Super Sport |

Pat,
The closest to the original 60's stern light that is still available is the Perko all metal # 1209DP2CHR or West marine #199655. It sounds like you still have the light and pole so you may want to take it into a marine supply and see if they can match it up to a new base. ------------- /diaries/details.asp?ID=1622" rel="nofollow - 54 Atom /diaries/details.asp?ID=2179" rel="nofollow - 77 Tique 64 X55 Dunphy Keep it original, Pete < |
