1959 S&S Cadillac hearse front windshield

[David Wilkens]

Hi all, I am hoping someone could tell me what model windshield was used in the 59 S&S Cadillac hearses. I was told they were series 75 but Caddy Daddy tell me they are not. I would like to get a spare windshield but don't know what model to start looking for. Does anyone know the model or know where i can get one ?
Any help would be much appreciated.

The windshield is the same from 59-64 CC ( Ambulance's , Hearses, Flower Cars) and 59-65 Limousines

Last I saw they were unavailable and very pricey if you can find one on a parts car or stashed away.

AGP (Auto Glass Peru) has ceased making reproduction windshields. I have no way of knowing if they have sold or disposed of the molds or not, but presently they have ceased production of windshields for anything except new cars. With the slowdown of new car assembly, they might start the production of classic windshields again, but this is just speculation on my part.

Hi David, I had heard a while back the ones made in Peru had some sizing issues? Someone here can correct me if I'm wrong. I needed one for a 64 MM combo...so instead I bought a complete 64/65 limo just for the windshield. Sold the combo, kept the limo...just in case. If you have the space, I would suggest looking for a parts car.

Thanks, yes it would be nice to find one stashed away.
