So why a new windshield? Is it just leaking? You may just need to seal it if it is not cracked.

That is one of my favorite colors.

Welcome to the forum.

Richard,

If you had see the pile of cars behind their place, you'd know why they didn't care about it. A mishmash of brands and models just laying there waiting for certain death. The windshield has a huge crack top to bottom in the middle. I already ordered a new seal from PeachParts (show some support for the forum host). When I repaint the car, we are pulling the window, doing the paint, then installing the new window and seal so its crisp.

I really like the color as well. It's not brown, tan, yellow or white. Those are the usual colors I see these 300d's in. I had a 1970 Chevelle in Mist Turquoise and a 1978 Chevy tow truck that was similar in color. Plus my website and logo graphics are teal. You can say I like it.
