My shop broke my rear hatch glass. Am I doomed? Is it the same as anything else? Does anybody have one to sell? Very depressed. Car is getting close ! Thanks for any suggestions.

Dear Bernd_st : I am not shying away from paying whatever I need to for the glass and I do not intend to go for a cheaper alternative like plexi. I simply cannot find a piece. I found no listing for Rootes Parts in Holland. If you have that listing, please let me know. Thanks again. This will get done. This shop made a Saab windshield by finding a larger screen with the correct curve and cutting it out. I dont think the Harrington rear will be that unique. (HOPE runs eternal).Good luck. The curvature is very specific...
OK you got me there!! Thank you. The website is a little quirky but it does indicate that they have the Harrington Le Mans rear hatch screen in stock and can ship worldwide in a crate. I have asked for a quote for glass plus crating and shipping. I will let you know when they reply. Thank you again so much!!!Correct approach. I was talking exact spec glass. Check under https://www.rootesparts.com/
Send them an eMail. Not sure whether they still have a piece left, but worth to give it a try....
I am hopeful as their stock sheet showed green in stock. As we both know, cost is not an issue it is always availability. Keep me posted on any other reproductions that may occur as I still need one spear for the front and both rear quarter panel moldings and drop down "hockey sticks". Other than that it is so far, coming along very well. It should be driveable and reaady for interior trim in about 6 weeks. All the best.Hope they still have one left for you. All the best...
