We just purchased what we believe to be a 1967 Starcraft Falcon. The windshield is cracked near the bottom where it is fastened to the boat. Does anyone have any suggestions as to where I can buy a replacement windshield and metal frame and fasteners? Thanks in advance for any help!!

You are probably going to have to make one or have someone make one for you, I have built a few over the years with a heat gun and dremel tool on my living room floor. That or you are going to have to find the exact same boat that someone is selling and salvage a windshield off of it. The third option is to find a similar boat from another manufacture and do some measuring to find one that will fit your boat.

Not as many options out there that we have on older cars.

Based on your pictures, I really would not let it bother me, I would run it until I sold it or it grenades itself, but your windshield will last a long time with the crack in it.

you would have to have it custom made or make it yourself like MT stated. my guess to have it made would be in the $800-1200 range and that is just for the plastic windscreen.

Thanks for the help and advice. Having a cracked windshield that isn't properly fastened to the boat is gonna drive me crazy. Will contact the plastics guy and let you know if that could be a resource for others.
