Jan, If working on your '36 Ford is your first attempt to work on an old car I would strongly suggest you take your time, don't rush the job.
Fasteners, (bolts/screws) tend to get brittle with age, add corrosion within the threads makes for broken screws and frustration. The original screws in the windshield frame are quite small fine thread, in many cases there are no new screws, washers, nuts, etc., available. Take pictures as you go, will help to refresh your memory.

It is very common for a novice car re-builder to discard old parts on the assumption that new parts can be purchased, Wrong! Bag and identify any part and the area it came from, it will make re-assembly much easier.
