It's easy the second or third time that you do it. The first time it seems impossible. I was able to do the split windshield on my '50 by myself. The difficult part is getting around the corners without ripping the rubber seal with the rope. Do it on a warm day in the sun and it will be easier. A tool like a plastic knife or spatula is useful for persuading the seal when the rope isn't doing a good job. It helps to apply a bit of wax to the pinch weld when the glass is out, too.

However, it is difficult to remove the old rubber without cracking the glass. The best way is to drill a hole through the rubber and thread a wire or guitar string through it and use it to saw out the rubber around the glass.
