Hi,
My '27 metal body has had a '23 or so windshield frame, but has the '27 mounting posts. The '23 lower frame doesn't match the curved cowl. It's straight. Looks kind of strange with the openings at each lower corner. I really don't want to alter the body to fit the windshield frame, but $500 or so for a Speedway '27 frame is pretty dear. I thought about making some filler panels of wood and painting them to match the body. It's a "ratrod" but I 'd like it to look decent. I took a lot of pains to correct a lot of baaaad welds and make it safe to drive.
Thanks'
