Classic car glass, fitted by hand
Most glass shops will not touch an old car. Gasket-set screens, brittle chrome, rusted clips and a windscreen nobody stocks — the reasons they say no are the reasons we say yes.
Front and rear screens for Australian classics, muscle cars, British sports cars and imports, fitted wherever the car lives across Brisbane, Ipswich, Logan and Bayside. Booked in days, not weeks.
What we take on
- Rubber-set and gasket-fitted screens
- Australian classics and muscle cars
- British sports cars, European and US imports
- Front screens, rear screens and quarter glass
- Obsolete glass located, or cut to pattern
- Chrome and stainless trim off and back on
Slower hands, older rules
The glass gets found first
Nothing is booked until we know the screen exists. Specialist suppliers, interstate stock or laminated glass cut to a pattern — you get a real answer on availability before a date.
Gasket, not urethane
Pre-1980s screens sit in a rubber gasket, set with cord and lubricant by two people. Different job, different skill. We supply a new gasket where the old one has gone hard.
Trim treated as irreplaceable
Old chrome and stainless reveals are more precious than the glass. They come off slowly, failed clips get replaced, and everything goes back straight.
Rust shown, not hidden
With the screen out you can see the whole aperture. Surface rust we treat and prime. Anything structural we photograph and send you to a panel shop rather than seal over.
Fitted where the car lives
Home garage, shed, restoration shop or storage unit. Most classics are unregistered or not worth driving across town, so we come to the car. No call-out fee.
Days, not weeks
Where the glass is here, the job is booked within a day or two. Where it has to travel, the wait is on the supplier and we tell you the honest date.
Just had my 1970 gto front and rear screens done. I had several people come look at the job and not do it. Warren came on time and made the impossible possible. I highly recommend this bloke he is genuine and very highly skilled and awesome prices. I’d never use anyone else.
Can you get glass for an older car that is no longer made?
Usually, yes. Most popular Australian, British and American classics still have screens available through specialist suppliers, and where nothing is listed we can have laminated glass cut and toughened to a pattern. Tell us the make, model and year and we will tell you honestly what exists, what it costs and how long it takes to arrive.
Do you fit rubber-set and gasket windscreens?
Yes. Anything built before roughly the mid-1980s is likely to sit in a rubber gasket rather than being bonded in with urethane, and the two jobs are nothing alike. A gasket screen is a patient, two-person job with cord and lubricant, and the gasket itself is often the part that needs replacing.
Will the chrome trim survive being taken off?
That is the part we take most care over. Old chrome and stainless reveal mouldings are brittle, the clips underneath are usually rusted, and they are far harder to replace than the glass. We remove trim slowly with the right tools, replace clips where they have failed, and refit it straight.
Do you work on the car at my place or at a workshop?
Wherever the car lives — a home garage, a shed, a restoration shop or a storage unit. Classic cars are often unregistered or not comfortable to drive far, so bringing the work to the vehicle is usually the right answer. There is no call-out fee.
What happens if there is rust under the old screen?
It is very common, and we would rather find it than cover it. Once the glass is out we can see the whole aperture, and we will show you what is there before anything goes back in. Light surface rust we treat and prime; structural rust needs a panel shop first, and we will say so rather than sealing a new screen over it.
How long will it take to get booked in?
Days, not weeks. The fitting itself is booked within a day or two of your call for anything we hold locally. Where a screen has to come from a specialist supplier interstate the wait is on the glass, not on us, and we tell you that up front.
Not sure whether the damage needs a repair or a whole new screen? Read repair or replacement — and on an older car, see OEM versus aftermarket glass before you decide what to fit.
