48' window specs?

I have just bought a 48' F-1 and all the windows were trashed and I was wondering if any one knew the specs so I could send them in to get some new cut. Need specs on all windows.
Thanks,

Complete Glass 48

Your best to get some glass that has been removed from a 48-50 Truck, then take that in and have it cut.
Also while doing that, entertain the thought of the regular tinted glass. I use it in all my trucks, and it looks great and does not take away from original, if thats the way your going.
Mac's in Locport carries the full set for your truck, maybe an option to look at. Best of luck to you, if I still had my old ones I would gladly help you out, in that way.

Thanks 5-star, I was thinking about the tinted look but was wondering if the price would go up at all and by how much but thanks for the info.
Thanks,

48 Glass

I wouldn't think so as the titned is more popular now than the original clear. I had my old glass replaced, with the tinted, and the pattern was taken from my old glass.
You can go on to some of the different sites and get prices. You won't have a problem getting it any which way you choose.

Sacramento Vintage Ford also stocks the glass for your truck in clear and tinted.

I had trouble finding an auto glass place that would make a windshield for my '49 F-2. Most of them only sold "packaged" glass and no longer cut flat glass. I ended up going to a shower door glass company and they cut one for me in about two hours for $75.
