Windshield dissassembly and reassembly

Post by wild4679 »

I'm looking for a written procedure for disassembling the windshield frame for my 31 AA. It appears there are not enough exposed screw heads to take it apart to replace the glass, replace the hinge, and remove the sealant. I can't tell if some components of the windshield are welded or screwed together.

Can someone direct me to a procedure? I've checked the Ford Service Bulletins, the Restorer books and Les Andrews' books, to no avail.

There are three screws each side at the top of the windshield frame. One comes through the front and two at the side.
After removing the screws the top of the frame comes up and off and the glass can be removed out the top of the frame. The bottom and side
of the frame are one piece.
