The windshield frame is removablre, isn't it?
Is all I have to do is remove the 3 bolts under the dash pad? Also, how do I remove those little side vent window thingies (technical term) I plan to put the tub upside down once I remove it from the frame to patch/brace/paint the floors and repair the inner rockers.
The top is now, the t-18 is almost mounted to the bellhousing (I probably won't do that again) I got a long way to go. Any help/info is appreciated.

Up in the cowl there are two bolts, one each side, that attach/ reinforce the windshield frame. They must be removed also. They are on legs that come down from the ends of the windshield frame.
Hope I was clear on that

Yeah - the bolts for the windshield arms are inside the tub, just forward of the doors (around drivers left knee & passenger's right knee).

Don't make the mistake someone I know did & think they're welded in or something - that could get ugly.

As far as the wing vent windows, there are two bolts in the front of the door, one on either side of the upper hinge. And there's a screw just below the vent window lock. There's also possibly a taping screw in the weatherstrip at the bottom of the vent window (open window to get to it).

Good luck getting the vent windows out - I think mine are about rust-frozen in place.

If you have trouble getting the vent windows out of the door, just take the whole door off. Soak the screws with penetrating oil, let them sit for a day or so and use a hand impact driver to loosen them.

THANKS!

I probably would have been frustrated trying to find those 2.

I'll post some pictures soon.
