Location: Eastern Iowa		I've got a new windshield for 57-58 hardtops that has been in a crate for many years, it is etched with the old PPG Duplate logo. Trying to figure out if it is new made, NOS or just an "old" replacement?

Location: So. Cal		Which one? '57 hardtops use a different glass than the '58-'59. If it is the later one, I would be interested in it.
