Any good sources/books out there describing how to replace the windshield in a 1929 Model A Standare Coupe?

I have one I restored and have since learned is for a 29. I needed a 30. It is in primer. I plan to be at Orcutt September 9th for a swap meet. Pictures and price if interested.

Swap Meet section above.

Glass thicknesses and modern replacement frames can change they way the triplex glass has to be bedded in the frame. The setting tape will have to fit along with the glass into the channel.

What title did you use to list it? Failed to find it so far.

Brentwood Bob · 08-27-2023, 06:26 PM

Still pending, been firefighting. Maybe today I will pull it down, or take a picture.

Brentwood Bob · 08-28-2023, 11:14 PM

Not a good frame after all. Have several Good 30-31 frames.

Naf · 08-31-2023, 01:50 PM

OK. Thanks anyway.

Sorry to disappoint you. The 28-9 is different from the 30-31.
