A question regarding 35/36 windscreen frames.
Is there a difference in width between cabriolet, station wagon & convertible sedans against coupes and sedans?
I know the section is different but does the external width differ?

Graham, This does not answer your question, but did you know that the British Ford Pilot Windscreen fits the 1935 and 1936 Ford Coupes and Sedans. The bonus being that it is made in brass and does not rust.
 
Graham the convertible sedan and cabriolet windshield is different to sedan and coupe. Will take pictures later of difference. Cheers
 
Thanks Tony, I am aware that the shape is completely different particularly at the corners.
I was wanting to know if the outside cross section of the frame varies.
Nyall has some covers from Drake described as 35/36 for the joint in the screen that are to wide for a sedan screen and we wondered if they might be for a cabriolet?

They make windshield frames for a lot of cars and pickups other than USA-Ford. You might get lucky and they have the patterns and tubing to be able to make the Pilot.


The seam clips are different between the 1935-36 Ford closed car and convertible windshields.
 
the external width of coupe frame is .95 inches and external width of conv sedan/cabriolet is 1.16 inches
