What kind of glass do the Avenger and Valkyrie use?

Here is information I believe is correct concerning Avenger glass. Rear glass is 65,66 Mustang 2+2 Fastback. Windshield is 65-69 Corvair Monza or Corsa. Side windows, that is tougher. Some people just use Plexiglass (acrylic - shatters) or Lexan (polycarbonate - impact resistant). Originally there were two other choices. One was a single piece side window which Fiberfab supplied, it was custom glass and no one seems to know what happened to the original molds. The other way is a window/windwing combo, using a windwing from a 65 Mustang in combination with a 66 Ford LTD door glass and a regulator from a Karman Ghia. The wind wing will have to be reshaped somewhat at the top corner. There is another alternative which comes close, use a side window from an early Mazda RX-7.  A little window reshapeing or Fiberglas work might make this a workable solution. Then again, some people just leave the windows out and drive in nice weather.

Attention - Single piece OEM style side windows are again available

O.K. After a long time, I can report the following:

I have to add a disclaimer here. I do not know Mike, I have not seen this product. I have no reason to doubt that this is legitimate, but convince yourself before you order.

This is a breakthrough, as there are many cars out there, without the glass, and this is a very reasonable price. If anyone follows up on this, let me know what you find out.
