<div class="">I feel your concern. I put a rock through my wife’s Civic side glass using
the weed eater a few weeks back. It is not a box it came in. Rather it was
simply an envelope. Two thin sheets of corrugated cardboard and a very thin,
single layer of bubble wrap covering just the center third of this curved sheet
of glass. Somehow it made it from Illinois to So. Cal. without breaking.</div>
<div class=""> </div>
<div class=""> Good to see that your glass arrived safely. Also thankful there is
still a windshield available. For many older cars they are rare and expensive.
Picture #2 is a transport frame I made so my son could bring two ‘64 Studebaker
windshields 400 miles..., without breaking them. I spent hours pulling the rear
seats out of his car, gutting the trunk and squeezing every fraction of an inch
to get the glass as vertical as possible. I paid $100 ea. for these
difficult to find windshields even though they had scratches and
bull's-eyes'. Otherwise it was $800 (new) for what I was told was “the
only one left.”</div>

I was a bit panicked when I pulled into the driveway and saw the package
standing on end in my driveway. The second picture shows what I found when
I opened it.</div>

<div class="gmail_default" style="FONT-SIZE: small">They used bags of expanding
foam to secure the windshield in place. The whole bottom of the box was
the same foam. And, best of all, when I got it out. the windsield was
intact.</div>

<div class="gmail_default" style="FONT-SIZE: small">No, its not the windshield for
an old Chevy Cameo or something. LMC is Long Motor Corp, parent of
VB. I guess they share boxes.</div>
