The windshield install on a '47 car is a completely different animal than on a '38 p/u. The opening windshield frame on the p/u is a 2 piece unit that uses glass setting tape on both sides of the glass which is then inserted into the grooves in the frame and the frame is then bolted together securing the windshield. The frame w/glass installed then has a seal which goes around the outside of the frame which seals the unit to the cab when the windshield is in the closed position. There have been threads posted in the last couple of months about installing windshield glass with opening windshields like the one in a '38 p/u.
