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. |

On the early cars, don’t use the windshield to help you get in and out of the car. It will bend.
