Its been a little cold here to do much work as my garage is not heated. But I tried to mock up the front section using a 29/29 cowl with cowl posts to use the stock windshield. Decided not to use the stock cowl posts as they are too narrow for the body as well a several other issues so I am back to using the the wood cowl posts with a small crescent filler between it and the lower cowl sides.

I found a windshield with a flat bottom that almost fit and I only need to slightly trim the cowl posts. I am not sure what it is from, maybe a Chevy? A soon as I get it mocked up I'll take some pictures.
