Introduce yourself here!

Morning, all. Jesse here from central Missouri. I spotted a VX in a friend's back lot about three years ago when I began restoring his Corvette. My first thought was, "What tha..?" Ended up moving to his place so that I could have quicker access to his car and found myself more and more intrigued by this VX. Aparently the original owner owed on it and skipped town off to California. I got the paperwork to apply for an abandoned vehicle title. The process will take about 40 days, but if I'm lucky I'll own it and love it. In the mean time, I love lurking on this forum just because it's such a one of a kind vehicle. I'll post up what happens!

Good luck Jesse!

Hey all, my name's Brian. I've had my VX for almost a year now. Somehow in my town here in Idaho, we used to have 3 VX's. Every time I saw one I swore that if one of them came up for sale I would jump on it like white on snow. Low and behold, about three years after first discovering these crazy rigs and drooling at every sight of one, I stumbled upon a local one up for sale. The next day it was mine and I haven't looked back. It still puts a smile on my face every time I get in it.

whiplash,

Welcome to the family. Glad you are enjoying your VX & hope that smile lasts a good long time.

pannyj,

Welcome to the family to you too. Sorry to hear that you have to try & locate a difficult item so soon after buying. The installation will be easy once you find the glass. I suggest you start a thread on the subject rather than your question getting lost in this intro thread.

We could certainly help you out to locate either a used window or new & probably be a go between to get it shipped to you. I'm guessing that shipping will probably be as expensive as the cost of the glass though.

Contact Lisa (VX Crazy). she's parting out a VX.... may have the glass.
She's in Texas, so at least it's closer to you...a little...

If you had "The UPS Store" pack it professionally, it would probably be safe. It's going to cost WAYYYYYYYY more for shipping than the glass itself.

The price for a NEW window from Isuzu is $224.21
But, former Isuzu dealerships do not ship internationally (at least as far as I know).

Merlin..at St Charles (ex Isuzu!) sent a window to me overnight in Moab.

Cost was IIRC..about $220 including shipping.

Merlin... 1-800-727-8066

Mention this site...he likes us.

If he cant send it directly to you.......
I'm sure trans shipping via a member here can be arranged.

I am new at this forum stuff..one of you mention Lisa..don´t know how to reach her, will call tomorrow the number for merlin but I don´t think I can dial 800 numbers from here..I will sell something to get my glass...unless one of is coming to my country any time soon....free room and food at my place..
