56 f100 windshield

HI all,
Looking for some feedback on aftermarket windshields for a '56. Specifically looking for company name, price and overall quality and fit.
Thanks

I have dealt with Bob's Auto Glass for quite a few years now...while he is located in the PNW, the glass distributor he uses is here in SoCal. I drive up to Ontario, near Pomona, to pick up any glass I buy through him directly from the distributor and save the shipping costs. As a point of interest, while up there one day picking up some glass I saw an Overhaulin' photo signed by Chip Foose. When I asked about it the distributor told me that they supply all the glass for the cars on the TV show Overhaulin'. I guess I never thaought too much about the glass on these cars since they never make a big deal about it on the show but he told me that every car they overhaul gets all new glass.
There are less expensive sources for F100 glass here in the SoCal area, you may want to check your area for availability. I think that most all this specialty glass is coming from China anyway. All seems to fit fine, no one that I deal with has ever complained about fit or quality.
