Good Suppiers? Have some windshield parts, anyone got tips on repro knobs and such? Also the wood for the top, no one seems to make repros of that.

Ken,
I got all of my wood for my LP from Rodman. Don't know if he still has all of the pieces, but he might.

I have one of my door glass pieces installed. Working on the others right now. I need the windshield cut for me and that will complete all six pieces. The glass is easy to get since it's clear and flat. Any glass shop can do it.

I still need the windshield center medallion however.

I got all my wood from Rodman to. Just started with the passenger side door. Easy yes and Easy no. Will have to check with local shop, last time they could do my windshield, by they couldnt do my rear window on the convertible top (32 Ford) as the glass was not available in that thickness. Once I get the glass made I will send out the frames to be chromed.

Extra windshield parts are a little harder.
