Nut and bolted but the windshield can be lifted clear of the body and slid off to one side leaving the stationary part of the hinge behind. (The hinge part is done not with a pin but with a "curl within a curl", the ends of which are open.)
A lot, perhaps most Model A commerical cowls still have this stationary hinge in place. This to include the 150A station wagon, and the 79A panel delivery.
Besides the usual identifiers such as tapered end to the wind baffle and the height/protrusion of the adjust arms landing bracket, the 28-29 commercial windshields have an unusual hole through the windshield to mount a hand wiper - unusual in that the hole has an integral sleeve which acts as bearing for the wiper shaft.
