71 Blazer double Hatch glass replacement

After 46 years a stupid accident in that the rear hatch came down on some 2x4's after hitting a pot hole and shattered. The only saving grace is the window tinting. To the question,does anyone know where to buy a replacement glass. Is it single pane or double. Thanks in advance for any ideas.

I actually have an extra...my hatch was busted but glass was good. Bought a new hatch with glass in it. If you ever get up to Dallas I would sell it to you.A glass shop might just be able to cut you one but idk what kind it is or how much.

Re: 71 Blazer double Hatch glass replacement

There is a seller on eBay that sells replacement glass (Auto City Classics). They didn't have a listing for blazers but I asked on one of the c10 listings if they could do a full set of glass for a blazer including the sides and rear glass for the hardtop and they quoted me somewhere in the neighborhood of $500. That included door glass and windshield. I haven't pulled the trigger yet so I can't attest to the fitment.

Thanks for the reply, 1rippen6 made a tracing of the extra one he had for me, Now the local glass company that said they would cut one for me backed out. So I'm hoping one day somebody will have one up for sale.

Jmo241 where did you purchase your new glass for yours. I really need to get mine replaced.

I would think there would be a lot of glass shops in the San Antonio area. If the shop you contacted can't cut flat laminated glass, they probably shouldn't be in the business.

Just FYI, the original glass is probably tempered - I'm not aware of any Blazers that came with laminated side glass. If you want, you can take your pattern to a good glass shop and get a quote for a piece of tempered. They'll send the pattern to a tempering shop and it usually takes about a week or so to get your glass back.
