      Flush Mount glass kits...who's in?

      We have kicked around the idea for the last year on making flush mount glass kits. I need to know what cars you guys think would be a big hit and or what car you would buy one for and what price point do you think we can sell these at.

      The last guy making them was trying to get $1999 for a set of front and rear glass and I think that is too high so what do you guys think we can sell them for. We don’t want to break the bank but we need to be able to make a little bit of money on these kits so we can make different kits for other applications. We were thinking in the $799-$899 for front and rear window kit with everything needed to install.



      You thoughts?

      Any help from you guys would be greatly appreciated.

      I think the trim looks nice on the 67-69 Camaros, and ties it into the drip rail trim. The 2nd gen Camaro I think is a great candidate as not all cars had drip rail trim, and the side glass had a smooth look, almost flush mount as well.

      Oh and hey, btw, I have a 2nd gen Camaro laying around here in Gilbert in the early bodywork phases if you need a test car. HAHA.

      I love the flush glass look. You'd make some serious money if you can develop kits for other models besides first gen Camaros. I've searched long and hard and I can find several kits for 67-69 Camaro, but nothing for GM A-bodies or other popular cars. I can think of at least 3 people that would go for a kit for 68-69 A bodies, and I'd go for one as well. Just some info to think on.

      Flush Mount glass kits...who's in?

      First and second gen camaro/ firebird would be a great place to start as they are some of the most popular rebuilders. Mustangs is probably the second then chevelle and nova being hot for the drag racers.

      As far as price i would suggest that you sell them as cheap as you can with out hurting your self. 800 or 900 dollars is a little high for me but its a hell of a lot better than 2000.

      I know i will be looking for something like this in the future for my 75 camaro.

      I think that is too high so what do you guys think we can sell them for. We don’t want to break the bank but we need to be able to make a little bit of money on these kits so we can make different kits for other applications.

      Id love one for the 69 but how do they work? Is it a filler material between the stock glass and the metal windshield cut out?
