1935 Ford Truck Windshield

[Auto Focus Canada]

I am re-installing a windshield in a 1935 Ford Pick up truck. The previous owner removed the stock crank out windshield and replaced it with a fixed windshield. I am repainting the truck and am in the process of re-installing the windshield but I need a rubber seal. Unfortunately, as I bought the truck, I do not have the cool chrome window frame, hinge mechanism or the crank mechanism, just a piece of glass. The cool cranks mechanism was been removed from the truck and a poor installation of replacement fixed glass was installed.

Does anyone know of a replacement rubber seal that I can purchase that will work for this fixed window application.

Many thanks.

Trautwein Products make a reproduction windscreen frame. Most of the 'usual suspects in the repro business should have the rubber seal, the hardware is another matter, you may have to hunt down originals. I had to buy a crank mechanism a couple of years ago, good ones are hard to find and expect to pay accordingly.
Good luck, and enjoy that breeze.
