More progressI finally got the windshield flange done and the finish work done. It's ready to get blasted, sealed, primed, and then it goes to the glass shop for custom glass. Then the wipers go in and I get to wheel the piss out of it The corner pieces going in. I cut these out of 1/8" plate on the band saw. The rest of the flange is made of 1/8" x 3/4" strap. The entire flange is stitch welded in (except the bottom corners, I continuous welded them for strength), so I will have to use a body sealer to keep the water from *pouring* around the flange. I inset it by 1/2" from the outer surface, about the same as the stock frame.The hot nasty work with grinders and welder finally done, ready for bead blasting and sealer. I am really tired of windshield frames right now :haha:
