What is the method of removal for the windshield for a '66? I am new at this and am in need of some advice. I sure don't want to break it.
Thanks a lot for any help.
Michigan boy.

if you're going to re-use the glass, take a sharp utility knife and cut the rubber outside until someone inside can push the glass out - just go slow and cut enuff that it doesn't take much pressure to get it loose - not hard to do, just tedious

The second and preferred method I use is to cut the gasket around the inside of the pinchweld. The utility knife can break the glass on the outside if not careful.

thaks for the tips. I'm dipping the cab so the windshield has to go. I really wanted to just dip the bottom 18" or so but nobody will do that so I gotta get everything out. Just more time.
