It is Metal Crafters,Costa Mesa,California which was mentioned in AUTOWEEK many moons ago,credited with the ability to create complex laminated safety glass.
The tooling for 1980s GTP car windshields is $29,000,so for a one-off windshield your looking at a minimum $32,000 to cover expenses.
If you could use a LOLA GTP windshield,they're $3,000 from Maurader,who builds a race ready LOLA clone.
