Default 1953 ford windshield info needed

Do all 1953 Ford passenger cars take the same windshield?

I'm looking for any info to verify a windshield size and interchangeability issue that I read about and find it hard to believe. A National Auto Glass Specification (NAGS) number by itself or with any dimensions would be helpful.....like the height of the glass (not installed) at centerline along the slope and the overall width (passenger side end to driver's side end) not installed.

I'll follow-up here with what I find out. Any help would be appreciated and I thank you for your time.

Al

If I remember correctly, the hardtops and convertibles, use the same winshield,

and the sedans and station wagons use the same winshield, and are a little taller.
