well it was on the way to the crusher when i found it....
it started as a fix the battery tray rust
got carried away
left the windshield & headliner original, mint and in place during process.
nobody would try to cut glass for me, said it might take 2-3 windshields to get it right... or I found someone and gotta bring it 600 miles ....and leave it for a week ...and if it gets broke later, i gotta do the whole thing all over again.
estimates for a windshield plus my time included
$500-$1500 bla bla bla .
just for the windshield (or two or three) to be cut!
and the whole time im standin there with this sawzall and a welder.
why do it this way.....cheaper & easier maybe?
I wasnt sure about the cowl gap except i can work in hidden wipers now.
yup removed a strip of metal from under the windshield.
dropped it into the cowl 5"
slits from rear side windows towards the rear .
sides and front cut free, left the roof/hatch connected when dropped.
A-pillars now drop into the inside of the doors/ doors needed re-working.
