Normspeed Posted January 29, 2007 Report Posted January 29, 2007 A friend is shopping for a windshield for his 53 2 door hardtop. My Hollander book seems like it might be incorrect, it says the 53-54 convertible windshield is the same as the wagon, sedan and coupe. That sounds wrong to me. Anyone know what interchanges for the 53 hardtop? Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted January 29, 2007 Report Posted January 29, 2007 That gonna be a tough ticket...Steele does not even list an application for 53/54 years...so no comparison there..as for the front glass..could be the same..the side vent windows are different as is the top of the frame..glass however could still be all the same. I cannot answer but I can compare with my 54 if you send measurements... Thbere is a 53 in my neck of the woods, I think I remember the glass as good and it even has OD..could be worthwhile if he cannot find anything. Quote
Normspeed Posted January 30, 2007 Author Report Posted January 30, 2007 Thanks Tim. My friend lives south of you near Stuart FL. I'll be visiting him in late Feb for a week. Jeez, if he has a flatbed we might line up a run to GA. Any idea what the deal is on the 53? Quote
BobT-47P15 Posted January 30, 2007 Report Posted January 30, 2007 I suspect the convrt windshields might interchange in these years.....they appear to be the same size as the other models. Unlike the P15 which definitely had a smaller, lower height windshield. Quote

Just to get on track early..send me your glass measurement...there are a number of usable items on that 53 that may make it worth picking up...anyway..work out the detials on that later...send me a PM Quote
Normspeed Posted January 30, 2007 Author Report Posted January 30, 2007 I told Lee to get some measurements off his windshield. I'm looking for a spare overdrive tranny and a 53 unit would be perfect. Quote
captden29 Posted January 30, 2007 Report Posted January 30, 2007 on the 54 chrysler the windshield is the same for the 2 or 4 door and the convertible.yours could be just like this. dennis Quote
