Rebuilld Flourescent Lights
The coaches based on the school bus chassis (i.e. the pre 1989 wide body) can use a windshield for the Blue Bird school busses. So, they are widely available from vehicle glass companies. From what I've heard, pricing from the factory (the school bus side) is very competitive. The windshields are also stocked at the several Blue Bird school bus distributors around the country. It pays to shop around, but the best deal is likely direct from the school bus factory or from on of the BB school bus distributors.
In the mean time, you can try one of those windshieldfix-it kits from an auto-parts store. They work fairly well for smaller cracks/chips. The more vertical orientation of the BB windshield (as compared to the typical automobile) makes some kits a little harder to use due to the direction of gravity, so (try to) read the instruction sheet before buying.

Is there a source for windshields for a 77fc35 other than the factory? I have some moderate cracks and rock chips in my windshields. Not enough that I wanted to replace them today, but I had been planning to buy a set or two to put aside for a future replacement.
