I have done several searches, but cannot find the thread on repair/checking potential windshield pillar issues of early cars.
I have a 1970, and it needs a windshield replaced, so I am trying to plan ahead for any other issues. No sense installing a new windshield and then removing it later to do any reinforcing or repairs. any help/links appreciated. |

I read a post that I thought was on 914 World.
Who ever posted had quite a few pictures, showing the brace installed on cars after 1972. The bracing adds to the rigidity of the A pillars at their base. The repair/reinforce post must have been in a restoration somewhere other than 914 World. |
