FW: [T3] Windsheild Install

["Jaranson, John (J.W.)" <jjaranso@ford.com>]

Thought this would be of general interest to the List as well.  Maybe I just
got lucky with mine....

Keith - 

I was able to successfully remove my laminated windshield without breaking
it or destroying the seal.  And it was on my '71 Fasty with the extra
retaining clips?  I simply started at one corner with a rigid plastic pry
bar.  I think it was an orange peeler or something that was in the kitchen.
>From the inside I run the scraper around the edge of the seal to free it up
a bit and then started working the inner lip over the the metal flange while
pushing gently on the glass with the palm of my hand.  I used popsicle
sticks to hold the seal over the lip as I work my way around.  It took me
probably an hour os so to do it by myself.

I still have the seal with the molding in it if you are interested.  I will
be going Cal-look.  Yours for the price of shipping, if a '71 seal will fit
your Notch.

Later,
