I need a new windshield for my Pantera 1972 late model. Are any available or new production ? (Jäckel in Germany is out of business and rid of all inventory to the Swiss. Does anybody know who bought that stock inventory ?
thanks, Uli

Try Mr Fiat, $399.00+$200.00 shipping.
who is Mr. Fiat, any contact details ?
If you click on the banner add above it takes you directly to his site.
I just recently replaced mine during the modification of my car with a flush glass windshield, so my original early '72 glass is sitting at the shop. This is in Los Angeles. If you're interested let me know.
Mr. Fiat ask for 1525 USD, not 399 USD !
I have a late 1972, does the windshield fit into ? as I understood, your "old" shield would be available, if so $ ??
Sorry, It is sacc, 951-461-2190. Clear glass
DIY-ers, AVOID IF AT ALL POSSIBLE! Shipping a huge chunk of glass around the world is and always will be expensive. Pantera windshields have been sourced from S.America, Europe and the Far East. I have been at vendor's shops when a substantial wooden crate of ten windshields was first opened- to find an average of two broken in shipment. Reclaiming international insurance costs on broken glass is slow and does not often cover costs.
You also have a choice of clear or tinted versions, and std or oversized. Used windshields are invariably scratched or sandblasted by decades of use. Finally, a new, flexible rubber gasket (two versions of these, too- one with slits that mount the shiny trim and one without) can be upwards of $250. Once installed without cracking, you then get to fix the inevitable water leaks.... I've done two myself and I will not even help any more, not fun.
I got my window from a glass factory here in Finland they can make it in color you want ! but it take at least 4 weeks! but i now they have at least one heated glass in stock! and prices is okay.
pm me for they mail address
Hi Kimk,
yes, please let me know the e-mail address or contact details of the glass manufacturer, thanks, Uli

I would be interested in learning more about the flush windshield, perhaps in a separate thread . (or if there is already a thread about this, steer me that way)
Just got home, but I'll take some pictures tomorrow in the light and post. By the time you pay for new rubber and metal trim for the windshield, you've paid more than for the flush glass that doesn't require any of that and which just makes the look more modern. Obviously not for those who want originality or concourse restoration or even highest resale value, but definitely better looking.
thanks guys, I (Kimk) found a supplier here in Europe. Since the seal rubber were new (origin new), the metal trim are still fine, they can remove the windshiel by taking care of the rubber and metal trim. Yes, I like the old style of my 1972 Pantera and would not take the modern version. I love the stinky gasoline and noise emission and sound of the car, harrrr :-) , and by they way, I am not 25 anymore... neither modern

I thought he was not going to close until the end of the year ?????
That's what I thought.... Uli, currently a windshield is for sale on ebay kleinanzeigen. May this could be also an option
Regards Marc
Hi Marc, do you have a link of the e-bay windshield, can't find it.
kennen wir uns vom Nürburgring oldtimer GP Parplatz ?

That windshield looks great. I had no idea such a thing could be done. Really interesting.
Thanks, I like it a lot, just looks cleaner, sleeker.
