Briggs windsheild question

From what i've seen, they are the same. The early leather back fordor cars use a different windshield frame. The fordor slant windshield frame has different dimensions . The 29 tudor windshield frame is different at the swing arm attachment but has the same dimension as the straight windshield fordor.

Are they smaller. 43 1/2 on the top and 42 1/2 bottom . My windshield opening measures 44 1/2 and 43 1/2 an inch smaller all around. there is one for sale with 43 1/2 on top . 1/2 gap on sides . I guess rubber would take that up. thanks for the reply,
 
I have a Briggs a couple of Briggs leatherback windshields out at the farm. I can measure one tommorrow afternoon when I am out there if no one else gets them to you before then. Seems the dimensions were different than those on a tudor, but I don't remember which was wider. Rod

Thanks a lot. I would like to know. I don't want to buy the wrong one. I have a tudor.
 
Dimensions of the '28-'29 Briggs Fordor (two side windows, Leatherback) windshield are

Width at top - 44 3/16"
Width at bottom - 42 3/4"
Height at outer edge - 14 1/2"
Height at center - 12 1/2"
give or take a 1/16" or so

The body opening is roughly 45 1/8" wide at top and 42 3/4" wide at the bottom however since my A pillars are loose at the header and dash these measurements are probably off wide by at least a 1/8".

Don't know what the dimensions are for the 3-window Briggs sedans or for a '29 Tudor.
