Is there a pin that goes through the two brackets on the windshield and the telescoping mechanism to connect the two halves? Does any one have a photo? Thanks.

John, yes, there is a small pin that goes through those two brackets. I may have a picture, or I could take a picture, and post here, or email/text to you.

JM 35 Sedan,
Please post the pic - I could use the info, too.
Thanks,
Bob

Okay Bob, I'll post some pics here as soon as possible. The pin shown is ~ 1-1/8" long x ~ 3/16" in diameter. It also has ~ 3/16" length of knurl on one end which helps to hold this pin in place.

It's a 1/4" stock drilled, like the windshield frame connecting pieces.

It's possible you are thinking about a different pin.

could be, most probable. if that's what we are talking about?

Didn't see the pictures before you added them. I'm a visual person sometimes.

John, do you have a pin and the other half of the hinge that is connected to the end of the arms?
